IAST Transliteration

yád devā́ devā́n havíṣā́yajantā́martyā́n manasā́martyéna | madéma tátra paramé vyòman páśyema tádudítau sū́ryasya ||

English Translation (Griffith/Whitney)

When the Gods with oblation sacrificed unto the Gods, the Deathless with mind made deathless; may we exult there in the highest firmament, and may we behold that at the Sun’s uprising.

Translation

ദേവന്മാർ ഹവിഷ് കൊണ്ടു ദേവന്മാർക്കായി യജ്ഞം ചെയ്തപ്പോൾ—അമർത്ത്യർ മനസ്സുകൊണ്ട് അമർത്ത്യത കൈവരിച്ചപ്പോൾ—ആ പരമ വ്യോമത്തിൽ ഞങ്ങൾ അവിടെ ആനന്ദിക്കട്ടെ; സൂര്യോദയത്തിൽ ആ ദർശനം ഞങ്ങൾ കാണട്ടെ.
