Transliteration

ṛcó akṣáre paramé vyòmani yásmin devā́ ádhi víśve niṣedúḥ | yás tán na véda kím ṛcā́ kariṣyati yá ít tád vidús tá imé samā́sate ||

Translation

A ṛc está firmada no Imperecível (akṣara), no supremo e vasto Espaço (parame vyoman) onde todos os deuses se assentaram. Quem não conhece Isso — que poderá realizar com o hino? Mas os que conhecem Isso, aqui se reúnem, em verdadeira harmonia do ser.
