With sharp mind may we consume the offspring of your strength with the father's share—O Soma, king—so that he, like the sun, may prolong life for the body and days.
May we partake of you, effused, with a longing mind as (men enjoy) paternal wealth; King Soma,prolong our lives, as the sun the world-establishing day.
May we enjoy with an enlivened spirit the juice thou givest, like ancestral riches. O Soma, King, prolong thou our existence as Surya makes the shining days grow longer.
