अरमयः सरपसस्तराय कं तुर्वीतये च वय्याय च स्रुतिम् । नीचा सन्तमुदनयः परावृजं प्रान्धं श्रोणं श्रवयन्त्सास्युक्थ्यः ॥

áramayaḥ sárāpasas tárāya kám turvī́taye ca vayyā́ya ca srutím | nīcā́ sántam úd anayaḥ parā-vṛ́jaṃ prá ā́ndhaṃ śróṇaṃ śraváyann sá āsy ukthyáḥ ||

هيَّأتَ السِّراعَ لتارَا، ولكَمْ، ولتورْفِيتِي ولفَيَّا، وثبَّتَّ لهم السَّبيل. ومن كان مُنخفضًا غائرًا رفعتَه، ومن كان مُنصرفًا رددتَه إلى الأمام؛ وجعلتَ الأعمى والأعرجَ يسمعان—فهو حقًّا موضوعُ هذا النشيد ومَحورُه.
