प्र दानुदो दिव्यो दानुपिन्व ऋतमृताय पवते सुमेधाः । धर्मा भुवद्वृजन्यस्य राजा प्र रश्मिभिर्दशभिर्भारि भूम ॥

प्र दा॑नु॒दो दि॒व्यो दा॑नुपि॒न्व ऋ॒तमृ॒ताय॑ पवते सुमे॒धाः । ध॒र्मा भु॑वद्वृज॒न्य॑स्य॒ राजा॒ प्र र॒श्मिभि॑र्द॒शभि॑र्भारि॒ भूम॑ ॥

Forward moves the divine giver and increaser of the streams; the clear-minded one flows as Truth for the Truth. He becomes the Law, the king of the active field, and goes forth with ten rays—vast in his bearing.
