bhūri cakra marutaḥ pitryāṇyukthāni yā vaḥ śasyante purā cit marudbhirugraḥ pṛtanāsu sāḷhā marudbhiritsanitā vājamarvā
Maruts have turned many rites by the father’s command; those songs of praise which are held for you in the town prosper. With terrible Maruts among the hosts of men are stout hymns and the plunder of strength.
You have bestowed, Maruts, many (benefits) on our forefathers, which praiseworthy (benefits) havebeen celebrated in former times; by the (favour of the) Maruts the fierce (warrior) is victorious in combats; by the(favour of the) Maruts the worshipper ever obtains food.
Full many a deed ye did for our forefathers worthy of lauds which, even of old, they sang you. lle strong man, with the Maruts, wins in battle, the charger, with the Maruts, gains the booty.
