इदम् उच्छ्रेयो ऽवसानम् आगां शिवे मे द्यावापृथिवी अभूताम् । असपत्नाः प्रदिशो मे भवन्तु न वै त्वा द्विष्मो अभयं नो अस्तु ॥१॥
idam ucchreyo 'vasānam āgāṃ śive me dyāvāpṛthivī abhūtām | asapatnāḥ pradiśo me bhavantu na vai tvā dviṣmo abhayaṃ no astu ||1||
Here have I come up to a better stop (avasā́na); heaven-and-earth have been propitious to me; let the directions be for me free from rivals; we verily hate thee not; be there fearlessness for us.
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
