Sukta 2
यत् प्राङ् प्रत्यङ् स्वधया यासि शीभं नानारूपे अहनी कर्षि मायया । तदादित्य महि तत् ते महि श्रवो यदेको विश्वं परि भूम जायसे

That thou, now eastward, now again westward, by thine own might goest swiftly, and by wondrous power drawest on the Day and Night of many forms—this, O Āditya, is great; great is thy glory, in that thou, alone, art born encompassing the whole earth.
