pīvoaśvāḥ śucadrathā hi bhūtāyaḥśiprā vājinaḥ suniṣkāḥ indrasya sūno śavaso napāto'nu vaścetyagriyaṃ madāya
May the swift, pure steeds, makers of the path, be given; the son of Indra follows the host of the sacrificial place; the foremost offering is for fervent delight.
Vājins, you are borne by stout horses mounted on a brilliant car, have jaws of metal and are possessed of treasures; sons of Indra, grandsons of strength, this last sacrifice is for your exhilaration.
Strong, with fair chains of gold and jaws of iron, ye have a splendid car and well-fed horses. Ye Sons of Strength, ye progeny of Indra, to you the best is offered to delight you.
