उदे॑नमुत्त॒रां न॒याग्ने॑ घृतेनाहुत । रा॒यस्पोषे॑ण॒ सᳪ सृ॑ज प्र॒जया॑ च ब॒हुं कृ॑धि
Transliteration
úd enam uttarā́ṃ nayā́gne ghṛténā́huta | rāyás póṣeṇa sáṃ sṛja prajā́yā ca bahúṃ kṛdhi
Translation
ഹേ അഗ്നേ, ഘൃതത്തോടെ ആഹുതിയർപ്പിക്കപ്പെട്ടവനേ, അവനെ മുകളിലേക്ക്—ഉന്നത ലോകത്തിലേക്ക്—നയിക്കേണമേ. ധനവർദ്ധനയും പോഷണവും സഹിതം അവനെ ഏകീകരിക്ക; പ്രജയാൽ അവനെ സമൃദ്ധനാക്കുക.
