वै॒श्वा॒न॒रीं सू॒नृता॒मा र॑भध्वं॒ यस्या॒ आशा॑स्त॒न्वोऽवी॒तपृ॑ष्ठाः । तया॑ गृ॒णन्तः॑ सध॒मादे॑षु व॒यं स्या॑म॒ पत॑यो रयी॒नाम्

Lay hold of Vaiśvānari, of gracious Truth, whose hopes make our very persons guarded behind. With her, praising in the common feasts, may we be lords of riches.
वैश्वानरी नाम की शक्ति को पकड़ लो। यह सच्चाई की शक्ति है जो तुम्हे रक्षा करती है। इसके साथ मिल के हम लोग भगवान की स्तुति करें। ऐसे में हमें धन-दौलत मिलता है और हम उसके मालिक बन जाते हैं।
