As cows sustain the herd, as warriors sustain the horses, so may the milch kine with rich udders give us abundance. May the sustaining Savita, lord of sacrifice, bring to us offspring and wealth.
As cattle hasten to the village, as the warrior to his horses, as affectionate milk-giving cows to the calf,as a husband to his wife, so may Savitā, the upholder of the sky, the desired of all, hasten to us.
As warriors to their steeds, kine to their village, as fond milk giving cows approach their youngling, As man to wife, let Savitar come downward to us, heaven's bearer, Lord of every blessing.
