हरिः सुपर्णो दिवम् आरुहो ऽर्चिषा ये त्वा दिप्सन्ति दिवम् उत्पतन्तम् । अव तां जहि हरसा जातवेदो ऽबिभ्यद् उग्रो ऽर्चिषा दिवम् आ रोह सूर्य ॥१॥
hariḥ suparṇo divam āruho 'rciṣā ye tvā dipsanti divam utpatantam | ava tāṃ jahi harasā jātavedo 'bibhyad ugro 'rciṣā divam ā roha sūrya ||1||
A yellow eagle, thou hast ascended unto heaven (dív) with radiance (arcís); whoso (pl.) would injure thee flying up to heaven, them smite thou down with flame (háras), O Jātavedas, unfearing; ascend unto heaven, O sun, formidable, with radiance.
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
