IAST Romanisation

aghnirna ye bhājasā rukmavakṣaso vātāso na svayujaḥsadyaūtayaḥ | prajñātāro na jyeṣṭhāḥ sunītayaḥsuśarmāṇo na somā ṛtaṃ yate

Like fire with flashing flame, breast-bound with chains of gold, like tempest-blasts, self-moving, swift to lend your aid; As best of all foreknowers, excellent to guide, like Somas, good to guard the man who follows Law.
