अ॒यं सु तुभ्यं॑ वरुण स्वधावो हृ॒दि स्तोम॒ उप॑श्रितश्चिदस्तु । शं नः॒ क्षेमे॒ शमु॒ योगे॑ नो अस्तु यू॒यं पा॑त स्व॒स्तिभिः॒ सदा॑ नः
ayaṃ su tubhyaṃ varuṇa svadhāvo hṛdi stoma upaśritaścidastu śaṃ naḥ kṣeme śamu yoge no astu yūyaṃ pāta svastibhiḥ sadā naḥ
This libation to you, Varuṇa, be pleasing in the heart; may the hymn be heard. Be auspicious to us in safety, peace and union; protect us always with well‑being.
May this laudation, food-conferring Varuṇa, be taken to your heart; may success be ours in retainingwhat we have, and in acquiring more; and do you, (deities), ever cherish us with blessings.
O Lord, O Varuna, may this laudation come close to thed and lie within thy spirit. May it be well with us in rest and labour. Preserve us ever-more, ye Gods, with blessings.
