उपास्महे रुद्रं प्रचेताः ऋतस्य पथिभिर्धिया
तन्नो देवा अनुमदन्तु यज्ञं सुवीर्यम्
Upasmahe Rudram Prachetah Ritasya Pathibhirdhiya
Tanno Deva Anumadantu Yajnam Suviryam
With illumined thought along the paths of Cosmic Order we worship Rudra, supremely wise guide of consciousness;
May the Gods rejoice in our sacrifice and grant us heroic spiritual strength.
