Thou castest down, Sarasvatī, those who scorned the Devas, the brood of every Bṛsaya skilled in magic arts. Thou hast discovered rivers for the tribes of men, and, rich in wealth! made poison flow away from them.

May the divine Sarasvatī, rich in her wealth, protect us well, Furthering all our thoughts with might

Yea, this divine Sarasvatī, terrible with her golden path, Foe-slayer, claims our eulogy.

Whose limitless unbroken flood, swift-moving with a rapid rush, Comes onward with tempestuous roar.

She hath spread us beyond all foes, beyond her Sisters, Holy One, as Sūrya spreadeth out the days.

Yea, she most dear amid dear stream, Seven-sistered, graciously inclined, Sarasvatī hath earned our praise.

Guard us from hate Sarasvatī, she who hath filled the realms of Earth, and that wide tract, the Firmament!

Seven-sistered, sprung from threefold source, the Five Tribes' prosperer, she must be Invoked in every deed of might.

Guide us, Sarasvatī, to glorious treasure: refuse us not thy milk, nor spurn us from thee. Gladly accept our friendship and obedience: let us not go from thee to distant countries.
