Sanskrit Original
मा पृ॒णन्तो॒ दुरि॑त॒मेन॒ आर॒न्मा जा॑रिषुः सू॒रयः॑ सुव्र॒तासः॑ । अ॒न्यस्तेषां॑ परि॒धिर॑स्तु॒ कश्चि॒दपृ॑णन्तम॒भि सं य॑न्तु॒ शोकाः॑
mā pṛṇanto duritamena āranmā jāriṣuḥ sūrayaḥ suvratāsaḥ anyasteṣāṃ paridhirastu kaścidapṛṇantamabhi saṃ yantu śokāḥ
Do not make them accept evil; do not let the brave, steadfast suryas be aged. May none of their cloaks turn away; if any refuse, let sorrows come upon them.
May those who propitiate (the gods), never commit degrading sin; may those who praise the gods and observe holy vows, never experience decay; may some (honourable) individual ever be their defence; and may afflictions fall upon him who does not propitiate (the gods).
Let not the liberal sink to sin and sorrow, never decay the pious -chiefs who worship! Let every man besides be their protection, and let affliction fall upon the niggard.
