वि॒द्युद्र॑था म॒रुत॑ ऋष्टि॒मन्तो॑ दि॒वो मर्या॑ ऋ॒तजा॑ता अ॒यासः॑ । सर॑स्वती शृणवन्य॒ज्ञिया॑सो॒ धाता॑ र॒यिं स॒हवी॑रं तुरासः
vidyudrathā maruta ṛṣṭimanto divo maryā ṛtajātā ayāsaḥ sarasvatī śaṛṇavanyajñiyāso dhātā rayiṃ sahavīraṃ turāsaḥ
Lightning‑armed Maruts, vigorous, born from the firmament, born of law and order; Sarasvatī, hear, ye knowers of sacrifice, bestower of wealth and strength, protect our heroic comrades.
May the Maruts, whose cars are the lightning, who are armed with spears, resplendent, destroyers of foes, from whom the waters proceed, (who are) unresting and adorable, and may Sarasvatī hear (my prayer); and may you (maruts), speedy in your liberality, bestow (upon us) riches and good offspring.
Borne on their flashing car, the spear-armed Maruts, the nimble Youths of Heaven, the Sons of Order, The Holy, and Sarasvati, shall hear us: ye Mighty, give us wealth with noble offspring.
