4.21.1
आ गावो अग्मन्न् उत भद्रमक्रन्त्सीदन्तु गोष्ठे रणयन्त्वस्मे ।
प्रजावतीः पुरुरूपा इह स्युरिन्द्राय पूर्वीरुषसो दुहानाः ॥ ४.२१.१ ॥
May the cows come and do us good; may they sit in our cattle-pen and delight us. May they here be full of offspring and of many forms, yielding milk for Indra at many dawns.
4.21.2
इन्द्रो यज्वने गृणते च शिक्षत उपेद्ददाति न स्वं मुषायति ।
भूयोभूयो रयिमिदस्य वर्धयन्न् अभिन्ने खिल्ये नि दधाति देवयुम् ॥ ४.२१.२ ॥
Indra gives to the sacrificer and the praiser; he comes near and gives gifts, and does not steal his own wealth. Again and again he increases this man's wealth, and sets the servant of the gods in an unbroken, empty field.
4.21.3
न ता नशन्ति न दभाति तस्करो नासामामित्रो व्यथिरा दधर्षति ।
देवांश्च याभिर्यजते ददाति च ज्योगित्ताभिः सचते गोपतिः सह ॥ ४.२१.३ ॥
They do not perish, and no thief harms them; no enemy or oppressor assails them. Through those by which he sacrifices and gives to the gods, the lord of cattle remains joined with them for long.
4.21.4
न ता अर्वा रेणुककाटोऽश्नुते न संस्कृतत्रमुप यन्ति ता अभि ।
उरुगायमभयं तस्य ता अनु गावो मर्तस्य वि चरन्ति यज्वनः ॥ ४.२१.४ ॥
The horse and the dust-cutter do not reach them, nor do ritual vessels draw near to them. Behind that fearless, much-praised sacrificer the cows roam at large.
4.21.5
गावो भगो गाव इन्द्रो म इच्छाद्गावः सोमस्य प्रथमस्य भक्षः ।
इमा या गावः स जनास इन्द्र इच्छामि हृदा मनसा चिदिन्द्रम् ॥ ४.२१.५ ॥
The cows are my fortune, the cows; may Indra desire cows for me. The cows are the first portion of Soma. These cows that are here, that is Indra, O people; with heart and mind I desire Indra indeed.
4.21.6
यूयं गावो मेदयथ कृशं चिदश्रीरं चित्कृणुथा सुप्रतीकम् ।
भद्रं गृहं कृणुथ भद्रवाचो बृहद्वो वय उच्यते सभासु ॥ ४.२१.६ ॥
O cows, you make the lean fat and the unsightly comely. You make the house auspicious, you who speak auspicious words; your great strength is proclaimed in the assemblies.
4.21.7
प्रजावतीः सूयवसे रुशन्तीः शुद्धा अपः सुप्रपाणे पिबन्तीः ।
मा व स्तेन ईशत माघशंसः परि वो रुद्रस्य हेतिर्वृणक्तु ॥ ४.२१.७ ॥
You who have offspring, shining in good pasture, drinking pure water at a good drinking place, may no thief gain power over you, nor any evil-plotting man; may the weapon of Rudra keep far away from you on every side.
