1

He rushes to bestow, Lord of wealth, King of might, at the treasure place. The pressing stones will serve him swiftly near us.

2

As guide for men, guide for earth and sky by glory, he whose rivers feed all life, Whose steps rest on the altar as he hurries forward.

3

He who kindled the joyful fortress, swift courser like the starry horse, Bright as the sun, with a hundred-fold existence.

4

Born twice over, he spreads his radiance across the three luminous realms, through all the regions, Chief sacrifice-maker where waters gather.

5

Born twice over, he holds all that's worth choosing by his love of glory, The man who gives him gifts has noble offspring.
