1.CLII Mitra-Varuṇa 
yuváṃ vástrāṇi pīvasā́ vasāthe yuvór áchidrā mántavo ha sárgāḥ |
ávātiratam ánr̥tāni víśva r̥téna mitrāvaruṇā sacethe || 
1 THE robes which ye put on abound with fatness: uninterrupted courses are your counsels. All falsehood, Mitra-Varuṇa! ye conquer, and closely cleave unto the Law Eternal. 
etác caná tvo ví ciketad eṣāṃ satyó mántraḥ kaviśastá ŕ̥ghāvān |
triráśriṃ hanti cáturaśrir ugró devanído ha prathamā́ ajūryan || 
2 This might of theirs hath no one comprehended. True is the crushing word the sage hath uttered, The fearful four-edged bolt smites down the three-edged, and those who hate the Gods first fall and perish. 
apā́d eti prathamā́ padvátīnāṃ kás tád vām mitrāvaruṇā́ ciketa |
gárbho bhārám bharati ā́ cid asya r̥tám píparti ánr̥taṃ ní tārīt || 
3 The Footless Maid precedeth footed creatures. Who marketh, Mitra-Varuṇa, this your doing? The Babe Unborn supporteth this world's burthen, fulfilleth Law and overcometh falsehood. 
prayántam ít pári jāráṃ kanī́nām páśyāmasi nópanipádyamānam |
ánavapr̥gṇā vítatā vásānam priyám mitrásya váruṇasya dhā́ma || 
4 We look on him the darling of the Maidens, always advancing, never falling downward, Wearing inseparable, wide-spread raiment, Mitra's and Varuṇa's delightful glory. 
anaśvó jātó anabhīśúr árvā kánikradat patayad ūrdhvásānuḥ |
acíttam bráhma jujuṣur yúvānaḥ prá mitré dhā́ma váruṇe gr̥ṇántaḥ || 
5 Unbridled Courser, born but not of horses, neighing he flieth on with back uplifted. The youthful love mystery thought-surpassing, praising in Mitra-Varuṇa, its glory. 
ā́ dhenávo māmateyám ávantīr brahmapríyam pīpayan sásmin ū́dhan |
pitvó bhikṣeta vayúnāni vidvā́n āsā́vívāsann áditim uruṣyet || 
6 May the milch-kine who favour Māmateya prosper in this world him who loves devotion. May he, well skilled in rites, be food, and calling Aditi with his lips give us assistance. 
ā́ vām mitrāvaruṇā havyájuṣṭiṃ námasā devāv ávasā vavr̥tyām |
asmā́kam bráhma pŕ̥tanāsu sahyā asmā́kaṃ vr̥ṣṭír diviyā́ supārā́ || 
7 Gods, Mitra-Varuṇa, with love and worship, let me make you delight in this oblation. May our prayer be victorious in battles, may we have rain from heaven to make us prosper.
