rākām ahaṃ suhavā suṣṭutī huve śṛṇotu naḥ subhagā bodhatu tmanā sīvyatv apaḥ sūcyāchidyamānayā dadātu vīraṃ śatadāyam ukthyam

English · William Dwight Whitney

Rākā I call with good call, with good praise; let the fortunate one hear us; let her willingly note; let her sew the work with a needle that does not come apart; let her give a hero of hundred-fold value, worthy of praise.

Sanskrit (romanised) · Atharvaveda, Śaunaka (Sanskrit, IAST)

yās te rāke sumatayaḥ supeśaso yābhir dadāsi dāśuṣe vasūni tābhir no adya sumanā upāgahi sahasrāpoṣam subhage rarāṇā

English · William Dwight Whitney

The well-adorned favors that are thine, O Rākā, wherewith thou givest good things to thy worshiper,—with them do thou come to us today favoring, granting, O fortunate one, thousand-fold prosperity.
