áthā te ántamānāṃ vidyā́ma sumatī́nām | mā́ no áti khyá ā́ gahi

Then may we know of thy most intimate benevolences, of thy gracious favours. Do not pass us by, as one unseen: come hither unto us.

अब हम तुम्हारी खुशियाँ जान सकें, तुम्हारे अच्छे काम। हमसे ऐसे ना गुज़रो जैसे तुमने देखा ही नहीं। हमारे पास आ जाओ।
