Mantra :

अजातशत्रुम अजरा सवर्वत्य अनु सवधामिता दस्मम ईयते |

सुनोतन पचत बरह्मवाहसे पुरुष्टुताय परतरं दधातन ||

आ यः सोमेन जठरम अपिप्रतामन्दत मघवा मध्वो अन्धसः |

यद ईम मर्गाय हन्तवे महावधः सहस्रभ्र्ष्टिम उशना वधं यमत ||

यो अस्मै घरंस उत वा य ऊधनि सोमं सुनोति भवति दयुमां अह |

अपाप शक्रस ततनुष्टिम ऊहति तनूशुभ्रम मघवा यः कवासखः ||

यस्यावधीत पितरं यस्य मातरं यस्य शक्रो भरातरं नात ईषते |

वेतीद व अस्य परयता यतंकरो न किल्बिषाद ईषते वस्व आकरः ||

न पञ्चभिर दशभिर वष्ट्य आरभं नासुन्वता सचते पुष्यता चन |

जिनाति वेद अमुया हन्ति वा धुनिर आ देवयुम भजति गोमति वरजे ||

वित्वक्षणः सम्र्तौ चक्रमासजो ऽसुन्वतो विषुणः सुन्वतो वर्धः |

इन्द्रो विश्वस्य दमिता विभीषणो यथावशं नयति दासम आर्यः ||

सम ईम पणेर अजति भोजनम मुषे वि दाशुषे भजति सूनरं वसु |

दुर्गे चन धरियते विश्व आ पुरु जनो यो अस्य तविषीम अचुक्रुधत ||

सं यज जनौ सुधनौ विश्वशर्धसाव अवेद इन्द्रो मघवा गोषु शुभ्रिषु |

युजं हय अन्यम अक्र्त परवेपन्य उद ईं गव्यं सर्जते सत्वभिर धुनिः ||

सहस्रसाम आग्निवेशिं गर्णीषे शत्रिम अग्न उपमां केतुम अर्यः |

तस्मा आपः संयतः पीपयन्त तस्मिन कषत्रम अमवत तवेषम अस्तु ||
