Whatever fame is in the golden mountains, in cows, in horses, in flowing surā, in the honey of the fermenting drink, let that be in me.
अश्विना सारघेण मा मधुनाङ्क्तं शुभस्पती । यथा भर्गस्वतीं वाचमावदानि जनामनु
O Aśvins, anoint me with the essence, with honey, O lords of beauty, so that I may utter radiant speech among people.
