1 Roused from their bosom is the Dawn's beloved, the joyous Priest, most sapient, Purifier.

He gives a signal both to the angels and to mortals, to the righteous gifts, riches to the pious.

2 Most wise is He who, forcing doors of the miserly, brought the bright sun to us who feedeth many.

The cheerful Priest, men's Friend and home-companion, through still night's darkness He is made apparent.

3 Wise, never deceived, uncircumscribed, refulgent, our gracious guest, a Friend with good attendants,

Shines forth with wondrous light before the mornings; the young plants hath He entered, Child of Waters.

4 Seeking our gatherings, the Knower of all that is born hath shone adorable through human ages,

Who gleams refulgent with His lovely lustre: the kine have waked to meet Him when enkindled.

5 Go on Thy message, and fail not, O God, with their band who pray and worship.

Bring the righteous that they may give us riches, the angels, and the waters.

6 Vasistha, when enkindling Thee, O God, hath slain the wrongdoer. Give us wealth in plenty.

Sing praise in choral song, O Knower of all that is born. Preserve us evermore with blessings.
