प्र शंत॑मा॒ वरु॑णं॒ दीधि॑ती॒ गीर्मि॒त्रं भग॒मदि॑तिं नू॒नम॑श्याः ।
पृष॑द्योनिः॒ पञ्च॑होता शृणोतु॒ अतू॑र्तपन्था॒ असु॑रो मयो॒भुः ॥
Most gracious Varuṇa, by radiance and song — may he now attain Mitra, Bhaga and Aditi. Seated in the dappled place, five-fold offerer, of unobstructed path, the lord who brings well-being, may he hear.
5.42.2
प्रति॑ मे॒ स्तोम॒मदि॑तिर्जगृभ्यात्सू॒नुं न मा॒ता हृद्यं॑ सु॒शेव॑म् ।
ब्रह्म॑ प्रि॒यं दे॒वहि॑तं॒ यदस्ति॑ अ॒हं मि॒त्रे वरु॑णे॒ यन्म॑यो॒भु ॥
May Aditi accept my praise as a mother accepts her son — the word dear to the heart, gracious. The prayer that is dear and pleasing to the gods, which is in Mitra and Varuṇa, that well-being-giving one I (offer).

स नो॒ वसू॑नि॒ प्रय॑ता हि॒तानि॑ च॒न्द्राणि॑ दे॒वः स॑वि॒ता सु॑वाति ॥
Raise up the most wise of poets, drench him with honey and with ghee. May that god Savitṛ bestow upon us goods, the offered, beneficial, shining things.

O Indra, lead us with the mind, together with cows, together with heroes, O lord of bay horses, together with well-being. Together with the sacred word dear to the gods, with the good thought of the gods, with the gods worthy of sacrifice, lead us.
5.42.5
दे॒वो भगः॑ सवि॒ता रा॒यो अंश॒ इन्द्रो॑ वृ॒त्रस्य॑ सं॒जितो॒ धना॑नाम् ।

God Bhaga, Savitṛ, the share of wealth, Indra — conqueror of Vṛtra, winner of treasures. Ṛbhukṣan, Vāja, or Puraṃdhi, immortal and swift — may they protect us.

म॒रुत्व॑तो॒ अप्र॑तीतस्य जि॒ष्णोरजू॑र्यतः॒ प्र ब्र॑वामा कृ॒तानि॑ ।
न ते॒ पूर्वे॑ मघव॒न्नाप॑रासो॒ न वी॒र्यं॑ नूत॑नः॒ कश्च॒नाप॑ ॥
Together with the Maruts, unconquered, victorious, untiring — his deeds we shall proclaim. O bountiful Maghavan, neither those before you, nor the later ones; not even some new one has attained heroic power.

अप॑व्रतान्प्रस॒वे वा॑वृधा॒नान्ब्र॑ह्म॒द्विषः॒ सूर्या॑द्यावयस्व ॥
Make them their leader; may the wealth go to those who enjoy without being satisfied by our hymns. Drive away from the sun the lawless, thriving in offspring, enemies of sacred speech.

प्र सू म॒हे सु॑शर॒णाय॑ मे॒धां गिरं॑ भरे॒ नव्य॑सीं॒ जाय॑मानाम् ।
य आ॑ह॒ना दु॑हि॒तुर्व॒क्षणा॑सु रू॒पा मि॑ना॒नो अकृ॑णोदि॒दं नः॑ ॥
For the great one, for a good refuge, I bring a new thought and a song, newly born. He who, shaping forms in the breasts of the daughter (Uṣas), made this for us.

O gods, may we be in a wide place without hindrance.
