न प्रमिये सवितुर्दैव्यस्य तद्यथा विश्वं भुवनं धारयिष्यति । यत्पृथिव्या वरिमन्ना स्वङ्गुरिर्वर्ष्मन्दिवः सुवति सत्यमस्य तत् ॥

na pra-miye savitur daivyasya tad yathā viśvaṃ bhuvanaṃ dhārayiṣyati | yat pṛthivyā variman nā svaṅgurir varṣman divaḥ suvati satyam asya tat ||

Incomensurável é o que é do Savitṛ divino — como ele sustentará todo o devir, todo o universo. Pois desde a amplidão da terra até o cume do céu avança o seu impulso verdadeiro: isso é a sua verdade.
