दे॒वस्य॑ व॒यं स॑वि॒तुः सवी॑मनि॒ श्रेष्ठे॑ स्याम॒ वसु॑नश्च दा॒वने॑ । यो विश्व॑स्य द्वि॒पदो॒ यश्चतु॑ष्पदो नि॒वेश॑ने प्रस॒वे चासि॒ भूम॑नः
devasya vayaṃ savituḥ savīmani śreṣṭhe syāma vasunaśca dāvane yo viśvasya dvipado yaścatuṣpado niveśane prasave cāsi bhūmanaḥ
May we be the best at Savitṛ’s revered throne, may wealth-givers attend the sacrifice. He who is two-footed and four-footed, entering and issuing from the earth, the being of the world, let them be placed.
May we be among the progeny of the divine Savitā, and (have power) to offer him most excellent donations; for you are he who (are absolute) in the procreation and perpetuation of many (living beings), bipeds and quadrupeds.
May we enjoy the noblest vivifying force of Savitar the God, that he may give us wealth: For thou art mighty to produce and lull to rest the world of life that moves on two feet and on four.
