For increase of barley

Rise up (ut-çri), become abundant (bahú) with thine own greatness, O barley; ruin (mṛ) all receptacles; let not the bolt from heaven smite thee.

2
English · William Dwight Whitney

Where we appeal unto thee, the divine barley that listens, there (tát) rise up, like the sky; be unexhausted, like the ocean.

3
English · William Dwight Whitney

Unexhausted be thine attendants (? upasád), unexhausted thy heaps; thy bestowers be unexhausted; thy eaters be unexhausted.
