amājūriva pitroḥ sacā satī samānādā sadasastvāmiye bhagam kṛdhi praketamupa māsyā bhara daddhi bhāgaṃ tanvo3 yena māmahaḥ
Like a mother and father united, equally steadfast and constant, I invoke you, O Lord. Make known your work; grant the portion to my share by which I may be vigorous.
As a virtuous (maiden), growing old in the same dwelling with her parents, (claims from them her support), so come I to you for wealth; make it conspicuous, measure it, bring it (hither), grant (a sufficient) portion for my bodily sustenance, (such as that) wherewith you honour (your worshippers).
As she who in her parents' house is growing old, I pray to thee as Bhaga from the seat of all. Grant knowledge, mete it out and bring it to us here: give us the share wherewith thou makest people glad.
