Sanskrit recitationRig Veda 2.28.1
Transliteration

idáṃ kavér ādityásya sva-rā́jo víśvāni sā́nty abhy àstu mahnā́ | áti yo mandró yajáthāya deváḥ su-kīrtíṃ bhíkṣe váruṇasya bhū́reḥ ||

Translation

Esta é a palavra do kavi do Āditya, do rei soberano de si: que, por sua grandeza, abarque todas as harmonias que existem. A Varuṇa, o Abundante, peço bela fama —um reto renome interior—, para que o Deus jubiloso transponha (todo obstáculo) em prol da obra do sacrifício.
