Sukta 2
उ॒द्यन् र॒श्मीना त॑नुषे॒ विश्वा॑ रु॒पाणि॑ पुष्यसि । उ॒भा स॑मु॒द्रौ क्रतु॑ना॒ वि भा॑सि॒ सर्वां॑ल्लो॒कान् प॑रि॒भूर्भ्राज॑मानः
udyán raśmī́nā tanuṣe víśvā rūpā́ṇi puṣyasi | ubhā́ samudráu kratúnā ví bhāsi sárvāṃl lokā́n paribhū́r bhrā́jamānaḥ ||
Rising, with thy rays thou stretchest forth; all forms thou makest to prosper. Over both the oceans by thy purpose thou shinest abroad, blazing, encompassing all worlds.
उदय पावून, आपल्या रश्मींनी तू विस्तारतोस; सर्व रूपांना तू पुष्ट करतोस. आपल्या क्रतु (संकल्प/शक्ती) ने दोन्ही समुद्रांवर तू सर्वत्र प्रकाशतोस; तेजस्वी होऊन, सर्व लोकांना परिभू (आवृत) करतोस.
