Samhita Patha (Devanagari)

Transliteration
gárbho devā́nāṃ pitā matīnā́ṃ pátiḥ prajā́nām | sáṃ devó devéna savitrā́ gatá sáṃ sū́ryeṇa rocate
Translation
ഗർഭൻ—ദേവന്മാരുടെ പിതാവ്, മതികളുടെ പതി, പ്രജകളുടെ അധിപതി—ആ ദേവൻ ദേവനായ സവിതൃവിനോടുള്ള സംയോഗത്തിൽ ഗമിച്ചിരിക്കുന്നു; സൂര്യനോടുള്ള സംയോഗത്തിൽ അവൻ പ്രകാശിക്കുന്നു.
