HYMN I

In praise of Savitar

1Sing, Atharvana, at eve, sing loudly, bring a splendid present:
   hymn God Savitar with praises.
2Yea, praise him whose home is in the river, Son of Truth, the
   youthful, gracious friend whose word is guileless.
3Savitar our God shall send us many everlasting treasures, that
   both paths may well be travelled.
