On high stands Savitar, this God, spreading golden light that he illuminates. Now, now invoke Bhaga, mortals, Lord of great wealth who shares his treasures.
Rise, Savitar, whose hands are golden, and hear this man as sacrifice is made, Spread far your broad radiance, bring food to those who feed.
May Savitar, praised with songs, to whom Vasus sing glory, all who protect our princes. Sweet are our praises to him; may he with all protection guard our rulers.
He whom Aditi praises, in Savitar’s incitement, rejoices, high imperial rulers, Varuṇa, Mitra, Aryaman, sing in concert, let them hear our call.
Those who come with emulation, sharing bounty, from earth and sky. May they and Ahibudhnya hear our call; guard us Varūtrī with the Ekadhenus.
May the Lord of Life, entreated, grant us wealth Savitar possesses, The mighty call on Bhaga for protection, the weak call on Bhaga for riches.
Bless us Vajins when we call, as slowly they move, strong singers to the gods’ assembly. Crush the wolf, serpent, and demons, may they banish all affliction.
Wise in eternal Law, deathless, Singers, O Vajins, help us in each fight for plunder. Drink of this mead, be joyful, then travel paths that gods frequent.
