यन् नियानं न्ययनं संज्ञानं यत् परायणम् । आवर्तनं निवर्तनं यो गोपा अपि तं हुवे ॥
yan niyānaṃ nyayanaṃ saṃjñānaṃ yat parāyaṇam | āvartanaṃ nivartanaṃ yo gopā api taṃ huve ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
1 call upon their herdsman, him who knoweth well their coming nigh, Their parting and their home-return, and watcheth their approach and rest.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
