ॐ सेनान्ये विद्महे
अग्निजन्मने धीमहि
तन्नः स्कन्दः प्रचोदयात्
Om Senanye Vidmahe
Agnijanmane Dhimahi
Tannah Skandah Prachodayat
Om, may we know the leader of the divine hosts,
And meditate deeply upon Him who was borne by the sacred fire Agni;
May Lord Kartikeya awaken courage and spiritual wisdom.
