To Savitar, the wise Asura God, we seek this great gift worthy of our choice, With which he freely grants his worshiper protection. With his rays, the Great God has granted us this.
Nurturer of the sky, Lord of all life’s sustenance, the Sage dons his golden armor. Clear-sighted, spreading far, filling the vast realm, Savitar has brought forth bliss that deserves praise.
He fills the heavens and earth with abundance; the God strengthens himself by singing the hymn. Savitar stretches out his arms to cherish life, producing with his rays and calming all that moves.
Lighting all living beings, never to be deceived, Savitar, God, protects each holy ordinance. He stretches out his arms to all the people of earth, and, with his laws observed, rules his mighty course.
Savitar thrice encircling with his might in the air, three regions, and the triple sphere of light, Sets the three heavens in motion and the threefold earth, and willingly protects us with his triple law.
Most gracious God, who brings to life and lulls to rest, he who controls the world, what moves not and what moves, May he grant us shelter—Savitar the God—tranquil life, with triple protection against distress.
With the year’s seasons has Savitar, God, come near; may he prosper our home, give food and noble sons. May he invigorate us through the days and nights, and may he send us prosperity with offspring.
