O Soma-king, may your gentle touch be auspicious for us; know the vow that rests on you. Daksha and many Angiris consider you not hostile; may we be favored by those who follow the noble.
King Soma, bless us for our welfare; we worshippers are yours, do you recognize it; the enemy goesstrong and fierce, O Soma; give us not over to him as he desires.
King Soma, favour us and make us prosper: we are thy devotees; of this be mindful. Spirit and power are fresh in us, O Indu give us not up unto our foeman's pleasure.
