1

The child, when joined with the waters, speeds the ritual's path, Surpassing all that we hold dear, indeed, from ancient times.

2

The spot, close to the two stones that press, he has claimed, Hidden and dear among the seven sacrificial lights.

3

Urging three paths, on the heights of those stones, riches flow in streams. He who wisely measures his steps.

4

At his birth, the Seven Mothers taught him, for glory, like a sage, So that he, steadfast and sure, sets his heart on wealth.

5

Under his rule, all the innocent Deities stand, Warriors to be envied, when they are pleased.

6

The one born by those who uphold Law, fair to behold, Much desired at the sacrifice, the generous Sage—

7

Together, the young parents of the rite unite, When they adorn him, weaving sacrifice skillfully.

8

With wisdom and radiant eyes, they open heaven's stall, Speeding at solemn rites the plan of Holy Law.
