वास्तो॑ष्पते॒ प्रति॑ जानीह्य॒स्मान्त्स्वा॑वे॒शो अ॑नमी॒वो भ॑वा नः | यत्त्वेम॑हे॒ प्रति॒ तन्नो॑ जुषस्व॒ शं नो॑ भव द्वि॒पदे॒ शं चतु॑ष्पदे ||

ACKNOWLEDGE us, O Guardian of the Homestead: bring no disease, and give us happy entrance. Whate’er we ask of thee, be pleased to grant it, and prosper thou quadrupeds and bipeds.

7.54.2

वास्तो॑ष्पते प्र॒तर॑णो न एधि गय॒स्फानो॒ गोभि॒रश्वे॑भिरिन्दो | अ॒जरा॑सस्ते स॒ख्ये स्या॑म पि॒तेव॑ पु॒त्रान्प्रति॑ नो जुषस्व ||

Protector of the Home, be our promoter: increase our wealth in kine and steeds, O Indu. May we be ever-youthful in thy friendship: be pleased in us as in his sons a father.

Through thy dear fellowship that bringeth welfare, may we be victors, Guardian of the Dwelling! Protect our happiness in rest and labour. Preserve us evermore, ye Gods, with blessings.
