Anuvaka 44
1a May Dhatr the giver, may Savitr, rejoice in this, Prajapati, the lord of treasures, and Agni, for our sake; May Tvastr, Visnu, accord generously Wealth with offspring to the sacrificer. b O Indra, unite us in heart, with cattle, O bountiful one, with generous ones, with prosperity; With the holy power that is made by the gods, With loving kindness of the gods to whom sacrifice is made. c With glory, with milk, with ourselves, Are we united, with auspicious hearts; May Tvastr make fortune for us [1]; May he set right whatever is amiss in our bodies. d In that to-day, O Agni, we choose thee As Hotr as our sacrifice proceeded, Prosperously hast thou sacrificed, Prosperously hast thou laboured; Come wise and foreseeing one to the sacrifice. e With Hail! to you, O gods, have we made this seat, Ye who have come hither rejoicing in this as the pressing; When ye have eaten and drunken, Ye all, give to us, wealthy ones, wealth. f The gods whom eager thou didst bring hither, O god, Them [2], O Agni, do thou incite in their own abode; Bearing and bringing oblations, The rich draught, do ye mount the sky. g O sacrifice, go to the sacrifice; go to the lord of the sacrifice; go to thine own birthplace; hail! h This is thy sacrifice, O lord of the sacrifice, with its utterance of hymns and producing noble heroes; hail! i Ye gods that find the way, finding the way, go on the way. k O lord of mind, place this sacrifice, O god, for us among the gods, hail! or speech, hail! or the wind, hail!
