A blessing on the kine

With a comfortable (suṣád) stall, with wealth, with well-being, with that which is the name of the day-born one, do we unite you.

2
English · William Dwight Whitney

Let Aryaman unite you, let Pūshan, let Brihaspati, let Indra, who is conqueror of riches; in my possession gain ye what is good.

3
English · William Dwight Whitney

Having come together, iinaffrighted, rich in manure, in this stall, bearing the sweet of soma, come ye hither, free from disease.

4
English · William Dwight Whitney

Come ye just here, O kine, and flourish here like çákā; also multiply (pra-jā) just here; let your complaisance be toward me.

5
English · William Dwight Whitney

Let your stall be propitious; flourish ye like çāriçā́kā; also multiply just here; with me we unite you.

6
English · William Dwight Whitney

Attach yourselves, O kine, to me as lord of kine; this your stall here [be] flourishing; to you, becoming numerous with abundance of wealth, to you living, may we living be near (upa-sad).
