उपास्महे उषसं तमोबाधिनी ऋतस्य पथिभिर्धिया
तन्नो देवा अनुमदन्तु यज्ञं सुवीर्यम्
Upasmahe Ushasam Tamobadhini Ritasya Pathibhirdhiya
Tanno Deva Anumadantu Yajnam Suviryam
With illumined thought along the paths of Cosmic Order we worship Ushas, dispeller of darkness with golden light;
May the Gods rejoice in our sacrifice and grant us heroic spiritual strength.
