हयो न विद्वां अयुजि स्वयं धुरि तां वहामि प्रतरणीम् अवस्युवम् । नास्या वश्मि विमुचं नावृतम् पुनर् विद्वान् पथः पुरएत ऋजु नेषति ॥
hayo na vidvāṃ ayuji svayaṃ dhuri tāṃ vahāmi prataraṇīm avasyuvam | nāsyā vaśmi vimucaṃ nāvṛtam punar vidvān pathaḥ puraeta ṛju neṣati ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
Well knowing I have bound me, horselike, to the pole: I carry that which bears as on and gives us help. I seek for no release, no turning back therefrom. May he who knows the way, the Leader, guide me straight.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
