Transliteration

ā́re asmád ámatim ā́re áṃha ā́re víśvāṃ durmatíṃ yán nipā́si | doṣā́ śiváḥ sahasaḥ sūno agne yáṃ devá ā́ cít sácase svastí ||

Translation

Далеко от нас отгони кривизну мысли, далеко — стеснение и грех; далеко — всякое дурное намерение, ибо ты их стерегёшь и удерживаешь. В ночи будь нам благим, о Агни, сын Сахаса (Силы), — ты, к кому даже боги приближаются ради свасти, благополучия.
