May the dadhikrās go the right way on the circling path of the true rite; let the divine promise be heard by us. May Agni hear; may all the heroic buffaloes attend us.
May Dadhikrā sprinkle our path (with water), that we may follow the road of sacrifice; may Agni, thestrength of the gods, here our (invocation); may the mighty, unperplexed, universal deities hear it.
May Dadhikras prepare the way we travel that we may pass along the path of Order. May Agni bear us, and the Heavenly Army: hear us all Mighty Ones whom none deceiveth.
