apó vr̥ṇānáḥ pavate kavīyán vrajáṃ ná paśuvárdhanāya mánma || 
1 WHEN beauties strive for him as for a charger, then strive the songs like soldiers for the sunlight. Acting the Sage, he flows enrobed in waters and song as ’twere a stall that kine may prosper. 
dvitā́ viūrṇvánn amŕ̥tasya dhā́ma suvarvíde bhúvanāni prathanta |
dhíyaḥ pinvānā́ḥ svásare ná gā́va r̥tāyántīr abhí vāvaśra índum || 
2 The worlds expand to hirn who from aforetime found light to spread the law of life eternal. The swelling songs, like kine within the stable, in deep devotion call aloud on Indu. 
pári yát kavíḥ kā́viyā bhárate śū́ro ná rátho bhúvanāni víśvā |
devéṣu yáśo mártiāya° bhū́ṣan dákṣāya rāyáḥ purubhū́ṣu návyaḥ || 
3 When the sage bears his holy wisdom round him, like a car visiting all worlds, the Hero, Becoming fame, mid Gods, unto the mortal, wealth to the skilled, worth praise mid the Ever-present, 
śriyé jātáḥ śriyá ā́ nír iyāya śríyaṃ váyo jaritŕ̥bhyo dadhāti |
śríyaṃ vásānā amr̥tatvám āyan bhávanti satyā́ samithā́ mitádrau || 
4 For glory born be hath come forth to glory: he giveth life and glory to the singers. They, clothed in glory, have become immortal. He, measured in his course, makes frays successful. 
íṣam ū́rjam abhí arṣā́śuvaṃ gā́m urú jyótiḥ kr̥ṇuhi mátsi devā́n |
víśvāni hí suṣáhā tā́ni túbhyam pávamāna bā́dhase soma śátrūn || 
5 Stream to us food and vigour, kine and horses: give us broad lights and fill th Gods with rapture. All ther are easy things for thee to master thou, Pavamana Soma, quellest foemen.
