सूर्यस्य तेजसो देवि मध्यभागं हि तत्स्मृतम् । सर्वं हेममयं देवि नापुण्यस्तत्र वीक्षते
sūryasya tejaso devi madhyabhāgaṃ hi tatsmṛtam | sarvaṃ hemamayaṃ devi nāpuṇyastatra vīkṣate
Hỡi Nữ Thần, nơi ấy được ghi nhớ là phần trung tâm của quang huy Mặt Trời. Ở đó muôn vật như bằng vàng; hỡi Devī, chẳng thấy điều bất tường nào.
