Devanagari script

ऋषिणा प्रीणिताः सर्वे तस्मात्प्रीत्यो हुताशनः । पूजिते हव्यवाहे तु दारिद्र्यं नैव जायते

Transliteration

ṛṣiṇā prīṇitāḥ sarve tasmātprītyo hutāśanaḥ | pūjite havyavāhe tu dāridryaṃ naiva jāyate

Translation

ഋഷി എല്ലാവരെയും തൃപ്തിപ്പെടുത്തി; അതിനാൽ ഹുതാശനൻ (അഗ്നി) പ്രസന്നനായി. ഹവ്യവാഹൻ (അഗ്നിദേവൻ) പൂജിക്കപ്പെടുമ്പോൾ ദാരിദ്ര്യം ഒരിക്കലും ഉദിക്കുകയില്ല।
