अ॒स्य मे॑ द्यावापृथिवी ऋताय॒तो भू॒तम॑वि॒त्री वच॑स॒: सिषा॑सतः | ययो॒रायु॑: प्रत॒रं ते इ॒दं पु॒र उप॑स्तुते वसू॒युर्वां॑ म॒हो द॑धे ||

GRACIOUSLY further, O ye Heaven and Earth, this speech striving to win reward, of me your worshipper. First rank I give to you, Immortal, high extolled! I, fain to win me wealth, to you the mighty Pair.

2.32.2

मा नो॒ गुह्या॒ रिप॑ आ॒योरह॑न् दभ॒न् मा न॑ आ॒भ्यो री॑रधो दु॒च्छुना॑भ्यः | मा नो॒ वि यौ॑: स॒ख्या वि॒द्धि तस्य॑ नः सुम्नाय॒ता मन॑सा॒ तत् त्वे॑महे ||

Let not man's guile annoy us, secret or by day: give not us up a prey to these calamities. Sever not thou our friendship: think thereon for us. This, with a heart that longs for bliss, we seek from thee.

2.32.3

अहे॑ळता॒ मन॑सा श्रु॒ष्टिमा व॑ह॒ दुहा॑नां धे॒नुं पि॒प्युषी॑मस॒श्चत॑म् | पद्या॑भिरा॒शुं वच॑सा च वा॒जिनं॒ त्वां हि॑नोमि पुरुहूत वि॒श्वहा॑ ||

Bring hither with benignant mind the willing Cow teeming with plenteous milk, full, inexhaustible. O thou invoked by many, day by day I urge thee with my word, a charger rapid in his tread.

2.32.4

रा॒काम॒हं सु॒हवां॑ सुष्टु॒ती हु॑वे शृ॒णोतु॑ नः सु॒भगा॒ बोध॑तु॒ त्मना॑ | सीव्य॒त्वप॑: सू॒च्याच्छि॑द्यमानया॒ ददा॑तु वी॒रं श॒तदा॑यमु॒क्थ्य॑म् ||

With eulogy I call on Rākā swift to hear may she, auspicious, hear us, and herself observe. With never-breaking needle may she sew her work, and give a hero son most wealthy, meet for praise.

2.32.5

यास्ते॑ राके सुम॒तय॑: सु॒पेश॑सो॒ याभि॒र्ददा॑सि दा॒शुषे॒ वसू॑नि | ताभि॑र्नो अ॒द्य सु॒मना॑ उ॒पाग॑हि सहस्रपो॒षं सु॑भगे॒ ररा॑णा ||

All thy kind thoughts, O Rākā, lovely in their form, wherewith thou grantest wealth to him who offers gifts— With these come thou to us this day benevolent, O Blessed One, bestowing food of thousand sorts.

2.32.6

सिनी॑वालि॒ पृथु॑ष्टुके॒ या दे॒वाना॒मसि॒ स्वसा॑ | जु॒षस्व॑ ह॒व्यमाहु॑तं प्र॒जां दे॑वि दिदिड्ढि नः ||

O broad-tressed Sinīvālī, thou who art the Sister of the Gods, Accept the offered sacrifice, and, Goddess, grant us progeny.

2.32.7

या सु॑बा॒हुः स्व॑ङ्गु॒रिः सु॒षूमा॑ बहु॒सूव॑री | तस्यै॑ वि॒श्पत्न्यै॑ ह॒विः सि॑नीवा॒ल्यै जु॑होतन ||

With lovely fingers, lovely arms, prolific Mother of many sons— Present the sacred gifts to her, to Sinīvālī Queen of men.

2.32.8

या गु॒ङ्गूर्या सि॑नीवा॒ली या रा॒का या सर॑स्वती | इ॒न्द्रा॒णीम॑ह्व ऊ॒तये॑ वरुणा॒नीं स्व॒स्तये॑ ||

Her, Sinīvālī, her, Gungū, her, Rākā, her, Sarasvatī, Indrāṇī to mine aid I call, and Varuṇānī for my weal.
