anuhū́taḥ púnar éhi vidvā́n údāyanaṃ páthaḥ | āróhaṇam ā́kramāṇaṃ jīvatójīvató ’yánam ||

English Translation (Griffith/Whitney)

Called after, come back again, thou knowing one, by the path of rising: the mounting, the firm stepping—this passage from the living unto the living.

Translation

വിളിക്കപ്പെട്ട ശേഷം, ഹേ വിജ്ഞാനവാനേ, വീണ്ടും മടങ്ങിവരിക—ഉദയത്തിന്റെ പാതയിലൂടെ. കയറൽ, ഉറച്ച പാദവെയ്പ്—ഇത് ജീവനുള്ളവരിൽ നിന്ന് ജീവനുള്ളവരിലേക്കുള്ള ഗതി.
