दि॒वि त्वात्त्रि॑रधारय॒त् सूर्या॒ मासा॑य॒ कर्त॑वे । स ए॑षि॒ सुधृ॑त॒स्तप॒न् विश्वा॑ भू॒ताव॒चाक॑शत्
diví tvā́t trír adhārayat sū́ryā mā́sāya kártave | sá éṣi sudhṛ́tas tápan víśvā bhūtā́vacā́kaśat ||
In heaven they set thee fast, O Sūrya, thrice over, to make the month its course. Thou goest, firmly stayed, burning; thou hast made all beings visible below.
在天上,人们把你三重安置得稳固,哦苏利耶(Sūrya),为使月之行程得以成就。你稳固而行,炽燃照耀;你使下方一切众生都显现可见。
