शकधूमं नक्षत्राणि यद् राजानम् अकुर्वत । भद्राहम् अस्मै प्रायछन् इदं राष्ट्रम् असाद् इति ॥१॥
śakadhūmaṃ nakṣatrāṇi yad rājānam akurvata | bhadrāham asmai prāyachan idaṃ rāṣṭram asād iti ||1||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
When the asterisms made the çakadhū́ma their king, they bestowed on him auspicious (bhadrá-) day, saying "This shall be [his] royalty."
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
