Namo hiranyabahave senanye dishan cha pataye namo namo vrikshebhyo harikeshebhyah pashunam pataye namo
Salutations to Lord Rudra with the golden arms, the leader of hosts, to the Lord of the four direction, salutations. Salutations to the trees tufted with green leaves; salutations to the Lord of the cattle.

Salutations to the trees tufted with green leaves; salutations to the Lord of the cattle. Salutations to Him who is light yellow-red tinged and radiant; to the Lord of the pathways, salutations. Salutations to Him who rides on the bull, to him who has the power to pierce all things, to the Lord of food, salutations. Salutations to Him who is always black-haired, who wears the yajnopavita (sacred thread); to him the Lord of the sleek, salutations. Salutations to Him the instrument that destroys Samsara (Ignorance); to the Lord of all the worlds, salutations. Salutations to Him who protects the world by the might of His drawn bow, to Rudra the destroyour of all miseries; to the Lord of the fields and sacred places, salutations. Salutations to the charioteer, He who cannot be overcome and slain. Salutations to the Lord of the forests.
Namo rohitaya sthapataye vrikshanam pataye namo namo mantrine vaanijaya kakshanam pataye namo namo bhuvantaye varivaskritayaushhadhinam pataye namo nama uchchairghoshhayakrandayate pattinam pataye namo namah kritsnavitaya dhavate satvanam pataye namah
Salutations to the red One, the Lord; to the Lord of trees, salutations. Salutations to the counselor of assemblies, the chief of traders, to the Lord of dense impenetrable clumps and clusters of thickets, salutations. Salutations to Him who has created the world and spread it broad, the creator of riches and lover of those who are devoted to Him; to the Lord of all vegetation, salutations. Salutations to Him of the fearsome war cry, who causes His enemies to weep. To the leader of the foot-soldiers, salutations. Salutations to Him who surrounds His enemies completely, and cuts off their retreat by running swiftly after the retreating stragglers; to the protector of the good who have taken refuge under Him, salutations.
In the second Anuvaka, Rudra is prayed to as one who pervades the earth and as the green foliage and heritage of medicinal herbs. He is asked to loosen the bonds of samsara (illusion). This Anuvaka is chanted for the destruction of enemies, possession of wealth, getting kingdom (getting Job) and possession of intelligence.
