Let him drink the Soma, mighty and long; let the sweet life be set, praised by the sacrificer. He who guards the wind-born, protects with spirit; he nourishes the folk, he rules widely.

Let the radiant (Sūrya) drink much sweet Soma, bestowing unbroken life upon the lord of thesacrifice; (Sūrya), who impelled by the wind protects his people of his own accord, nourishes them and shinesin various plural ces.

MAY the Bright God drink glorious Soma-mingled meath, giving the sacrifice's lord uninjured life; He who, wind-urged, in person guards our offspring well, hath nourished them with food and shines o'er many a land.
