दे॒वा॒व्यो॑ नः परिषि॒च्यमा॑नाः॒ क्षयं॑ सु॒वीरं॑ धन्वन्तु॒ सोमाः॑ । आ॒य॒ज्यवः॑ सुम॒तिं वि॒श्ववा॑रा॒ होता॑रो॒ न दि॑वि॒यजो॑ म॒न्द्रत॑माः
devāvyo naḥ pariṣicyamānāḥ kṣayaṃ suvīraṃ dhanvantu somāḥ āyajyavaḥ sumatiṃ viśvavārā hotāro na diviyajo mandratamāḥ
May the gods, having encompassed us, grant abundant and heroic strength; let the Somās support us with auspicious thought, the universal bestowers, the votaries not restrained by heavenly meanness.
May the Soma juices which are gratifying to the gods when poured around (into the vessels) bring us a dwelling and male offspring-- (the juice) endeavouring to gain the favour (of the gods), desired by all offering (to the gods) in heaven like the ministrant priests, most exhilarating.
Effused by us let God-delighting Somas bring as they flow a home with noble heroes. Rich in all boons like priests acquiring favour, the worshippers of heaven, the best of Cheerers.
