prá sū́ na etv adhvaró ’gnā́ devéṣu pū́rvyaḥ | ādityéṣu prá váruṇe dhṛtávrate marútsu viśvábhānuṣu ||
Translation
ขอให้พิธีบูชาของเราก้าวไปข้างหน้า—มีอัคนีนำหน้า ผู้เก่าแก่ในหมู่เทพ. จงก้าวไปท่ามกลางอาทิตยะทั้งหลาย จงก้าวไปสู่วรุณะผู้ทรงธรรมและสัตย์ปฏิญาณมั่นคง จงก้าวไปท่ามกลางหมู่มารุตผู้ส่องสว่างทั่วทิศ.
