यानि कानि चिच्छान्तानि लोके सप्तऋषयो विदुः । सर्वाणि शं भवन्तु मे शं मे अस्त्वभयं मे अस्तु
yā́ni kā́ni cicchā́ntāni lóke saptaŕ̥ṣayo vidúḥ | sárvāṇi śáṃ bhavantu me śáṃ me ástv ábhayaṃ me astu
Whatsoever things, of whatever sort, are here in the world held pacified, as the Seven Seers know—let them all become welfare unto me; let welfare be mine; let fearlessness be mine.
