Bearing serpent-like form, heed the cry from the five peoples and the ploughed ones. May she, bird-like, grant fresh life to my herd which Jamadagni’s sons gave.
May she, gliding everywhere, quickly bring us food (suited) to the five races of men; may she, the daughter of the sun whom the grey-haired jamadagnis gave to me, (be) the bestower of new life.
Sasarpari brought glory speedily to these, over the generations of the Fivefold Race; Daughter of Paksa, she bestows new vital power, she whom the ancient Jamadagnis gave to me.
