कविं शशासुः कवयो ऽदब्धा निधारयन्तो दुर्यास्व् आयोः । अतस् त्वं दृश्यां अग्न एतान् पड्भिः पश्येर् अद्भुतां अर्य एवैः ॥

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

This Sage the Sages, ne'er deceived, commanded, setting him down in dwellings of the living. Hence mayst thou, friendly God, with rapid footsteps behold the Gods, wonderful, fair to look on.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
