Transliteration

sá íd dānā́ya dábhyāya vánvan cyávānaḥ sūdáiḥ amimīta védim | tū́rvayāṇo gūrtá-vacastamáḥ kṣódho ná réta itá-ūti siñcat ||

Translation

Dia, mendesak menuju kurnia dan yang tidak tertembus, berusaha dan terus mara, mengukur altar (vedi) dengan persembahan yang melimpah. Menerjah ke hadapan, paling tepat dan lurus pada bicara, dia mencurahkan dorongan bagaikan benih—daripada pertolongan ini—untuk menegakkan kelahiran baharu karya di dalam kegelapan.
