May he who is the strong bull of the Vedas, assuming all forms, who has risen from the Vedas, from the Immortal, may that Indra (lord) strengthen me with wisdom! May I, O God, become an upholder of the Immortal! May my body be able, my tongue sweet, may I hear much with my ears! Thou (Om) art the shrine (of Brahman), covered by wisdom. Guard what I have learnt. She (Sri, happiness) brings near and spreads,

In plain words: The student prays to Indra, the lord of the gods, for wisdom. He asks for a strong body, kind speech and ears that hear much, and asks Om to guard what he has learned.
