Shukla Yajurveda (Vajasaneyi Samhita) · Adhyaya 4 · Verse 4.11
Sanskrit Original
व्रतम कृणुताग्निर्ब्रह्माग्निर्यज्ञो वनस्पतिर्यज्ञियः। दैवीम धियम मनामहे सुमृडीकामभिष्टये वर्चोधाम यज्ञवाहसं सुतीर्था नोऽअसद्वशे। ये देवा मनोजाता मनोयुजो दक्षक्रतवस्ते नोऽवन्तु ते नः पान्तु तेभ्यः स्वाहा।
Vratam kṛṇutāgnirbrahmāgniryaj¤o vanaspatiryaj¤iyaḥ. Daivīm dhiyam manāmahe sumṛŒīkāmabhiṣṭaye varcodhām yaj¤avāhasaṃ sutīrthā no'asadvaśe. Ye devā manojātā manoyujo dakṣakratavaste no'vantu te naḥ pāntu tebhyaḥ svāhā.
Let Agni perform the vow; Agni the Brahmanic, the sacrifice, the lord of plants, the sacrificer. We invoke the divine intellect for the wished blessings, the high splendour, the vehicle of the sacrifice, the good ford—may they be present for us. May the gods born of the mind, the mind-born, uniting with mind and dexterous rites, come to us and protect us; to them, svāhā.
