a He offers to Soma with the Pitrs a cake on six potsherds, to the Pitrs who sit on the straw fried grains, for the Pitrs prepared by Agni he milks a beverage from a cow which has to be won over (to another calf). b This for thee, O father, and for thy line; This for thee, O grandfather, great−grandfather, and for thy line Do ye Pitrs rejoice in your portions. c May we gladden thee, O bountiful one, fair to see; Forth now with full chariot seat Being praised, dost thou fare according to our will; Yoke, O Indra, thy two bay steeds [1]. d They have eaten, they have rejoiced, The dear ones have dispelled (evil), The radiant sages have been praised with newest hymn; Yoke, O Indra, thy two bay steeds. e The Pitrs have eaten, the Pitrs have rejoiced, the Pitrs have been glad, the Pitrs have purified themselves. f Go away, O ye Pitrs, Soma loving, With your majestic ancient paths; Then reach ye the kindly Pitrs Who carouse in company with Yama. h Mind let us summon hither With the praise of Naraçansa And the reverence of the Pitrs. h Let mind return to us [2] For vigour, for insight, for life, And that long we may see the sun.'
