5.19.1

अ॒भ्य॑व॒स्थाः प्र जा॑यन्ते॒ प्र व॒व्रेर्व॒व्रिश्चि॑केत | उ॒पस्थे॑ मा॒तुर्वि च॑ष्टे ||

ONE state begets another state: husk is made visible from husk: Within his Mother's side he speaks.

5.19.2

जु॒हु॒रे वि चि॒तय॒न्तोऽनि॑मिषं नृ॒म्णं पा॑न्ति | आ दृ॒ळहां पुरं॑ विविशुः ||

Discerning, have they offered gifts: they guard the strength that never wastes. To a strong fort have they pressed in.

5.19.3

आ श्वै॑त्रे॒यस्य॑ ज॒न्तवो॑ द्यु॒मद् व॑र्धन्त कृ॒ष्टय॑: | नि॒ष्कग्री॑वो बृ॒हदु॑क्थ ए॒ना मध्वा॒ न वा॑ज॒युः ||

Śvaitreya's people, all his men, have gloriously increased in might. A gold chain Bṛhaduktha wears, as, through this Soma, seeking spoil.

5.19.4

प्रि॒यं दु॒ग्धं न काम्य॒मजा॑मि जा॒म्योः सचा॑ | घ॒र्मो न वाज॑जठ॒रोऽद॑ब्ध॒: शश्व॑तो॒ दभ॑: ||

I bring, as ’twere, the longed-for milk, the dear milk of the Sister-Pair. Like to a caldron filled with food is he, unconquered, conquering all.

5.19.5

क्रीळ॑न् नो रश्म॒ आ भु॑व॒: सं भस्म॑ना वा॒युना॒ वेवि॑दानः | ता अ॑स्य सन् धृ॒षजो॒ न ति॒ग्माः सुसं॑शिता व॒क्ष्यो॑ वक्षणे॒स्थाः ||

Beam of light, come to us in sportive fashion, finding thyself close to the wind that fans thee. These flames of his are wasting flames, like arrows keen-pointed, sharpened, on his breast.
