tveṣás te dhū́ma ūrṇotu diví sáṃc-chukrá ātatáḥ | sū́ro ná hí dyutā́ tváṃ kṛpā́ pāvaka rócase

Let thy fierce smoke enwrap (us) in the sky, all-bright, outstretched abroad. For like the Sun in radiance thou, O Purifier, shinest in thine own proper form.

ขอควันอันดุเดือดของท่านห่อหุ้มปกคลุมเราไว้ในท้องฟ้า สว่างขาวผ่อง แผ่กว้างออกไปทุกทิศ เพราะท่านส่องประกายดุจดวงอาทิตย์ โอ้ผู้ชำระให้บริสุทธิ์ (ปาวกะ) ท่านรุ่งโรจน์ด้วยรูปแท้ของตนเอง
