अद्रशि गातुरुरवे वरीयसी पन्था रतस्य समयंस्त रश्मिभिश्चक्षुर्भगस्य रश्मिभिः | दयुक्षं मित्रस्य सादनमर्यम्णो वरुणस्य च | अथा दधाते बर्हदुक्त्य्हं वयौपस्तुत्यं बर्हद वयः

adraśi ghātururave varīyasī panthā ṛtasya samayaṃsta raśmibhiścakṣurbhaghasya raśmibhiḥ | dyukṣaṃ mitrasya sādanamaryamṇo varuṇasya ca | athā dadhāte bṛhaduktyhaṃ vayaupastutyaṃ bṛhad vayaḥ

English Translation (Griffith)

For the broad Sun was seen a path more widely laid, the path of holy law hath been maintained with rays, the eye with Bhaga's rays of light. Firm-set in heaven is Mitra's home, and Aryaman's and Varuṇa's. Thence they give forth great vital strength which merits praise, high power of life that men shall praise.
