ज्योतिर् वृणीत तमसो विजानन्न् आरे स्याम दुरिताद् अभीके । इमा गिरः सोमपाः सोमवृद्ध जुषस्वेन्द्र पुरुतमस्य कारोः ॥

jyotir vṛṇīta tamaso vijānann āre syāma duritād abhīke | imā giraḥ somapāḥ somavṛddha juṣasvendra purutamasya kāroḥ ||

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

He took the light, discerning it from darkness: may we be far removed from all misfortune. These songs, O Soma-drinker, cheered by Soma, Indra, accept from thy most zealous poet.
