Translation

Ô deux-fois-nés, lorsque Bhānu, le Soleil, parvenu à l’extrémité de la « cité » (l’horizon) passe sous la seigneurie de Śakra (Indra), alors, pour tous ceux qui accomplissent le rite du soir, l’on perçoit réellement le « saura-udaya », comme une levée solaire : signe céleste faste marquant le tournant du temps sous la conduite divine.
