Sanskrit Original
नि॒चे॒तारो॒ हि म॒रुतो॑ गृ॒णन्तं॑ प्रणे॒तारो॒ यज॑मानस्य॒ मन्म॑ । अ॒स्माक॑म॒द्य वि॒दथे॑षु ब॒र्हिरा वी॒तये॑ सदत पिप्रिया॒णाः
nicetāro hi maruto gṛṇantaṃ praṇetāro yajamānasya manma asmākamadya vidatheṣu barhirā vītaye sadata pipriyāṇāḥ
The lowly-minded Marut grieves at the invocation; the sacrificer utters his heart. Today for us, in these rites, the bold ones, famed among singers, stand forward with loving offerings.
The Maruts verily are the benefactors of him who praises them, the gratifiers of the wishes of theinstitutor of the solemnity; do you, being plural ased, sit down today upon the grass at our ceremony, to partake (ofthe sacrificial food).
The Maruts watch the man who sings their praises, promoters of the thought of him who worships. Seat you on sacred grass in our assembly, this day, with friendly minds, to share the banquet.
