Translation:
With Your most auspicious arrow and Your benign bow, O Rudra, the presiding Lord of all forests and nature,
And with Your auspicious quiver, be gracious and merciful unto us;
May the dart of Rudra pass us by, and may His fierce wrath spare us;
Unbend Your firm bow for our generous patrons, O bounteous Lord, and bless our children.
