These two gods, as they were being born, (men) welcomed; these two hid away the unwelcome darknesses. Through them, through Soma and Pūṣan, Indra begot the cooked (milk) within the raw (cows), within the ruddy ones.

The one made his seat on high in heaven, the other on earth and in the midspace. May those two loosen for us the navel (of wealth), rich in many desirable things, rich in cattle — the increase of riches — here among us.
