1. THE priests of him the lofty Priest
well-skilled in hymns harness their spirit, yea, harness their holy thoughts.
He only knowing works assigns their priestly tasks. Yea,
lofty is the praise of Savitar the God.
2 The Sapient One arrays himself in every form:
for quadruped and biped he hath brought forth good.
Excellent Savitar hath looked on heaven's high vault, and
shineth after the outgoing of the Dawn.
3 Even he, the God whose going-forth and majesty
the other Deities have followed with their might,
He who hath measured the terrestrial regions out by his
great power, he is the Courser Savitar.
4 To the three spheres of light thou goest,
Savitar, and with the rays of Sidrya thou combinest thee.
Around, on both sides thou encompassest the night: yea,
thou, O God, art Mitra through thy righteous laws.
5 Over all generation thou art Lord alone:
Pusan art thou, O God, in all thy goings-forth.
Yea, thou hast domination over all this world. Syavasva hath
brought praise to thee, O Savitar,
