कविः कवित्वा दिवि रूपमासजदप्रभूती वरुणो निरपः सृजत् । क्षेमं कृण्वाना जनयो न सिन्धवस्ता अस्य वर्णं शुचयो भरिभ्रति ॥

kavíḥ kavitvā́ diví rūpám āsajad áprabhūtī váruṇo nír apáḥ sṛjat | kṣémaṃ kṛṇvānā́ janáyo ná síndhavas tā́ asya várṇaṃ śúcayo bharibhrati ||

Der Seher setzte durch Seherschaft seine Gestalt im Himmel fest; Varuṇa, von ungehinderter Macht, ließ die Wasser frei. Frieden und sichere Weite schaffend, wie Mütter, wie Ströme, tragen die Reinen seinen strahlenden Glanz.
