6Rise up, O Súrya, rise thou up; with strength and splendour rise on me.
Let him who hates me be my thrall; let me not be a thrall to him.
Manifold are thy great deeds, thine, O Vishnu.
Sate us with cattle of all forms and colours: set me in happiness, in loftiest heaven.

7Rise up, O Súrya, rise thou up; with strength and splendour rise on me.
Make me the favourite of all, of those I see and do not see.
Manifold are thy great deeds, thine, O Vishnu.

8Let not the fowlers who are standing ready injure thee in the flood, within the waters.
Ascend this heaven, leaving each curse behind thee. Favour us: let thy gracious love attend us.
Manifold are thy great deeds, thine, O Vishnu.

9Do thou, O Indra, for our great good fortune, with thine inviolable rays protect us.
Manifold are thy great deeds, thine, O Vishnu.

10Be thou most gracious unto us, Indra, with favourable aid,
Rising to heaven's third sphere, invoked with song to quaff the
Soma juice, loving thy home to make us blest.
Manifold are thy great deeds, thine, O Vishnu.

11Thou art the vanquisher of all, O Indra, omniscient Indra, and invoked of many.
Indra, send forth this hymn that fitly lauds thee. Favour us let thy gracious love attend us.
Manifold are thy great deeds, thine, O Vishnu.

12In heaven and on the earth thou art uninjured, none reach thy greatness in the air's mid region.
Increasing by inviolate devotion as such in heaven grant us protection, Indra.
Manifold are thy great deeds, thine, O Vishnu.

13Grant us protection, Indra, with that body of thine that is on earth, in fire, in waters,
That dwells within light-finding Pavamána, wherewith thou hast pervaded air's mid region.
Manifold are thy great deeds, thine, O Vishnu.

14Indra, exalting thee with prayer, imploring, Rishis have sat them down in holy Session.
Manifold are thy great deeds, thine, O Vishnu,

15Round Trita, round the spring with thousand currents thou goest, round the light-finding assembly.
Manifold are thy great deeds, thine, O Vishnu.

16Thou guardest well the four celestial regions, pervading heaven, and earth with light and splendour.
Thou givest help to all these living creatures, and, knowing, followest the path of Order.
Manifold are thy great deed, thine, O Vishnu.

17With five thou sendest heat: with one removing the curse thou comest in bright sunshine hither.
Manifold are thy great deeds, thine, O Vishnu.

18Indra art thou, Mahendra thou, thou art the world, the Lord of Life.
To thee is sacrifice performed: worshippers offer gifts to thee.
Manifold are thy great deeds, thine, O Vishnu.

19What is based on what is not: the present lies on that which is
Present on future is imposed and future on the present based.
Manifold are thy great deeds, thine, O Vishnu.
Sate us with cattle of all varied colour. Set me in happiness, in loftiest heaven.

20Bright art thou, and refulgent: as thou shinest with splendour so I fain would shine with splendour.

21Lustre art thou, illuming: as thou glowest with lustre so I too would shine with cattle, with all the lustre of a Bráhman's station.

22Glory to him when rising, when ascending! Glory to him when he hath reached the zenith!
To him far-shining, him the self-refulgent, to him the Sovran Lord and King be glory!

23Worship to him when he is turning westward, to him when setting, and when set be worship!
To him far-shining, him the self-refulgent, to him the Sovran Lord and King be glory!

24With all his fiery fervour this Áditya hath gone up on high,
Giving my foes into my hand. Let me not be my foeman's prey.
Manifold are thy great deeds, thine, O Vishnu.
Sate us with cattle of all varied colours. Set me in happiness, in loftiest heaven.

25Thou for our weal, Áditya, hast mounted thy ship with hundred oars.
Thou hast transported me to day: so bear me evermore to night.

26Thou for our weal, O Súrya, hast mounted thy ship with hundred oars.
Thou hast transported me to night: so bear me evermore to day.

27Encompassed by Prajápati's devotion as shield, with Kasyapa's bright light and splendour.
Reaching old age, may I made strong and mighty live through a thousand years with happy fortune.

28Compassed am I with prayer, my shield and armour; compassed with Kasyapa's bright light and splendour.
Let not shafts reach me shot from heaven against me, nor those sent forth by men for my destruction.

29Guarded am I by Order and the Seasons, protected by the past and by the future.
Let not distress, yea, let not Death come nigh me: with water of my speech have I o'erwhelmed them.

30On every side let Agni guard and keep me; the rising Sun drive off the snares of Mrityu!
Let brightly flushing Mornings, firm-set mountains, and lives a thousand be with me united.
