dhruvaṃ jyotirnihitaṃ dṛśaye kaṃ mano javiṣṭhaṃ patayatsvantaḥ viśve devāḥ samanasaḥ saketā ekaṃ kratumabhi vi yanti sādhu
A steadfast light established, behold what mind has set free and cast down the most exalted. All the gods, with like minds and banners, together to one appointed rite go rightly.
A steady light, swifter than thought, stationed among moving beings to show (the way) to happiness all the gods being of one mind, and of like wisdom, proceed respectfully to the presence of the one (chief) agent (vaiśvānara).
A firm light hath been set for men to look on: among all things that fly the mind is swiftest. All Gods of one accord, with one intention, move unobstructed to a single purpose.
