Translation

Tr. O Lord, giver of treasure, as we sacrifice to thee, the ultimate, in thy seasons, be the giver to us.

Commentary

dravinodaḥ O Lord, giver of treasure; yat from whom stubhiḥ in accord with thy divine timing ; turiyam who completes the Four; tvà to thee; yajāmahe we sacrifice; adha for that reason; naḥ to us; dadiḥ the donor of treasure; bhava be; sma for metrical exigency.

dadiḥ terminates in i, like the form in Perfect tense, the first word is reduplicated and ā dropped.

Here this is to be borne in mind. The giver of treasure is first lauded thrice in respect to his three stations; now is lauded for the fourth time the giver of treasure in the fourth station in order to secure the divine treasure, the fourth (ultimate) and the highest of all, transcending the three stations denoted by the three vyāhſtis. If the word turiya is taken to qualify the act of sacrifice as we sacrifice for the fourth time', even then the purport is the same.
