     उद्गातेव शकुने साम गायसि बरह्मपुत्र इव सवनेषु शंससि |

     वर्षेव वाजी शिशुमतीरपीत्या सर्वतो नः शकुने भद्रमा वद विश्वतो नः शकुने पुण्यमा वद ||

     udgāteva śakune sāma ghāyasi brahmaputra iva savaneṣu śaṃsasi |

     vṛṣeva vājī śiśumatīrapītyā sarvato naḥ śakune bhadramā vada viśvato naḥ śakune puṇyamā vada ||

     Thou like the chanter-priest chantest the Sāma, Bird; thou singest at libations like a Brahman's son.

     Even as a vigorous horse when he comes near the mare, announce to us good fortune, Bird, on every side, proclaim in all directions happy luck, O Bird.
