वेदाहम् एतं पुरुषं महान्तम् आदित्यवर्णं तमसः परस्तात् । तम् एव विदित्वाति मृत्युम् एति नान्यः पन्था विद्यते ऽयनाय
vedāham etaṃ puruṣaṃ mahāntam ādityavarṇaṃ tamasaḥ parastāt / tam eva viditvāti mṛtyum eti nānyaḥ panthā vidyate 'yanāya
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
I know that great person (purusha) of sunlike lustre beyond the darkness. A man who knows him truly, passes over death; there is no other path to go.
