आ धे॒नव॒: पय॑सा॒ तूर्ण्य॑र्था॒ अम॑र्धन्ती॒रुप॑ नो यन्तु॒ मध्वा॑ । म॒हो रा॒ये बृ॑ह॒तीः स॒प्त विप्रो॑ मयो॒भुवो॑ जरि॒ता जो॑हवीति ॥ आ धेनवः पयसा तूर्ण्यर्था अमर्धन्तीरुप नो यन्तु मध्वा । महो राये बृहतीः सप्त विप्रो मयोभुवो जरिता जोहवीति ॥

May the kine, quick-moving, doing no harm, come to us, (laden) with their sweet fluid; the wise worshipper invokes the seven vast and joy-diffusing (rivers) for the sake of ample riches.

english translation

आ सु॑ष्टु॒ती नम॑सा वर्त॒यध्यै॒ द्यावा॒ वाजा॑य पृथि॒वी अमृ॑ध्रे । पि॒ता मा॒ता मधु॑वचाः सु॒हस्ता॒ भरे॑भरे नो य॒शसा॑वविष्टाम् ॥ आ सुष्टुती नमसा वर्तयध्यै द्यावा वाजाय पृथिवी अमृध्रे । पिता माता मधुवचाः सुहस्ता भरेभरे नो यशसावविष्टाम् ॥

(I purpose) to approach with pious praise, and with oblations, for (the sake of) uninjured heaven and earth may the paternal (heaven), and the sweet-spoken, free-handed, maternal (earth), both enjoying renown, defens us in every battle.

english translation

अध्व॑र्यवश्चकृ॒वांसो॒ मधू॑नि॒ प्र वा॒यवे॑ भरत॒ चारु॑ शु॒क्रम् । होते॑व नः प्रथ॒मः पा॑ह्य॒स्य देव॒ मध्वो॑ ररि॒मा ते॒ मदा॑य ॥ अध्वर्यवश्चकृवांसो मधूनि प्र वायवे भरत चारु शुक्रम् । होतेव नः प्रथमः पाह्यस्य देव मध्वो ररिमा ते मदाय ॥

Priests, who are preparing (the libation), first offer to Vāyu the delightful and brilliant (Soma); and do you, divine Vāyu, like the Hotā, first drink of this sweet juice, which we offer for your exhilaration.

english translation

दश॒ क्षिपो॑ युञ्जते बा॒हू अद्रिं॒ सोम॑स्य॒ या श॑मि॒तारा॑ सु॒हस्ता॑ । मध्वो॒ रसं॑ सु॒गभ॑स्तिर्गिरि॒ष्ठां चनि॑श्चदद्दुदुहे शु॒क्रमं॒शुः ॥ दश क्षिपो युञ्जते बाहू अद्रिं सोमस्य या शमितारा सुहस्ता । मध्वो रसं सुगभस्तिर्गिरिष्ठां चनिश्चदद्दुदुहे शुक्रमंशुः ॥

The ten express of the juice, (the fingers), and the two arms of the priests, which are the dexterous immolators of the Soma, take hold of the stone; the exulting, skilful-fingered (priest) milks the mountain-born juice of the sweet Soma, and that Soma (yields its) pure juice.

english translation

असा॑वि ते जुजुषा॒णाय॒ सोम॒: क्रत्वे॒ दक्षा॑य बृह॒ते मदा॑य । हरी॒ रथे॑ सु॒धुरा॒ योगे॑ अ॒र्वागिन्द्र॑ प्रि॒या कृ॑णुहि हू॒यमा॑नः ॥ असावि ते जुजुषाणाय सोमः क्रत्वे दक्षाय बृहते मदाय । हरी रथे सुधुरा योगे अर्वागिन्द्र प्रिया कृणुहि हूयमानः ॥

The Soma has been effused, (Indra), for your gratification, for (giving you) strength in action, and for your great exhilaration; therefore Indra, when invoked by us, put to your two beloved, docile, well-trained horses in your car, and come down.
