ॐ त्रिपथगामिन्यै विद्महे
रुद्रपत्न्यै च धीमहि
तन्नो गङ्गा प्रचोदयात्
Om Tripathagaminyai Vidmahe
Rudrapatnyai Cha Dhimahi
Tanno Ganga Prachodayat
Om, may we know Her who flows through the three worlds,
And meditate upon the sacred river resting on Rudra’s locks;
May Mother Ganga purify our mind and soul.
