Agni dispelled his anger.
Indra, his anger gone, ran forth together with the gods.
Their sacrifice became without Indra and without gods.
They desired, "May our sacrifice have Indra, may it have gods!"
Vidanvat Bhārgava saw these sāmans.
With them he praised.
With them he called Indra.
With them he dispelled his anger.
Then indeed Indra turned back toward their sacrifice.
Then he became one who does not depart from them.
Then their sacrifice came to have Indra and to have gods.
These sāmans are indeed possessed of Indra and possessed of gods.
The sacrifice of one who knows thus comes to have Indra and to have gods; Indra turns toward his sacrifice; Indra does not depart from his sacrifice.
Cattle indeed are "those who find" (vidanvantaḥ); these verses contain "finding" (vidanvatīḥ).
Unto them they release this bull of Vidanvat, for pairing, for procreation.
He is procreated through a pair, who knows thus.
And because Vidanvat Bhārgava saw them, therefore they are called "Vaidanvatas."
