Meaning -
O learned person "This is thy share of the sacrifice allied with Gayatri verses" so may he say unto me a student of science. This is thy share of the sacrifice allied with Trishtup verses/ so may he say unto me, the seeker of the essence of things. This is thy share of the sacrifice allied with verses in Jagati metre/ so may he say unto me a student of science. May thou attain to sovereignty detailed in vedic verses in all other metres’. May he thus preach the art of kingship unto me, full of affluence, O learned persons, just as ye are our purifying preachers, so am I your worthy disciple, endowed with virtues and wealth. May ye develop me and this sacrifice (yajna) as well.
-
A learned person asks another learned person What is the share of the sacrifice allied with vedic verses in Gayatri, Trishtup and Jagati metres. His answer is embodied in this mantra He refers to the learned person. Vedic verses in different metres like Gayatri, Trishtup, Jagati and Ushnik etc. are recited during the performance of a yajna. Pt. Jai Chand, Vidya Alankar of Ajmere, has in his commentary translated Gayatri as alluding to the Brahmanas, Trishtupa to the Kshatriyas and Jagati to the Vaishas.
