Transliteration

agrégó rājā ā́pyas taviṣyate vimā́nó ahnā́ṃ bhuvaneṣv árpitaḥ | hárir ghṛtásnuḥ sudṛ́śīko arṇavó jyótīrathaḥ pavate rā́ya okyàḥ ||

Translation

Raja yang mendahului, yang terkait dengan perairan, bertambah dalam kekuatan—menyukat hari-hari, ditegakkan dalam alam-alam. Dia yang terang, menitis dengan kilau ghṛta, indah dipandang, laksana samudera pada keluasan; berkereta cahaya dia mengalir, menyucikan diri menuju rumah batin kelimpahan (rāyaḥ okya).
