सिद्धिं मे संविधास्यन्ति देवाः सर्षिगणास्त्विह।।।।ब्रह्मा स्वयंभूर्भगवान् देवाश्चैव दिशन्तु मे।सिद्धिमग्निश्च वायुश्च पुरुहूतश्च वज्रभृत्।।।।वरुणः पाशहस्तश्च सोमादित्यौ तथैव च।अश्विनौ च महात्मानौ मरुतः शर्व एव च।।।।सिद्धिं सर्वाणि भूतानि भूतानां चैव यः प्रभुः।दास्यन्ति मम ये चान्ये ह्यदृष्टाः पथि गोचराः।।।।

Di sini, semoga para dewa bersama rombongan para ṛṣi menganugerahkan kejayaan kepadaku. Semoga Brahmā Yang Terbit Sendiri, Yang Mulia, serta para dewa penjuru arah memberkatiku. Semoga Agni dan Vāyu, dan Indra—yang sering diseru dalam yajña, pemegang vajra—memberi kejayaan. Semoga Varuṇa bertangan jerat, juga Candra dan Sūrya; kedua Aśvin yang agung, para Marut, dan Śarva juga. Semoga segala makhluk, dan Penguasa segala makhluk, bahkan makhluk-makhluk yang tidak kelihatan yang bergerak di sepanjang jalanku, mengurniakan kejayaan kepadaku.
May all sages, gods, the self-born Brahma, Wind-god, Indra, the wielder of thunderbolt whose name is invoked in sacrifices, Yama, who carries a rope, Varuna give success and Lord Siva help me. May the Sun, Moon, Aswinis Marutas assist me. May the gods of the quarters and the lord of all beings help me to succeed. May those whom I could not see also bring success to me.
