r̥táṃ ca satyáṃ cābhī́ddhāt tápasó 'dhi ajāyata |
táto rā́trī ajāyata tátaḥ samudró arṇaváḥ || 
1 FROM Fervour kindled to its height Eternal Law and Truth were born: Thence was the Night produced, and thence the billowy flood of sea arose. 
samudrā́d arṇavā́d ádhi saṃvatsaró ajāyata |
ahorātrā́ṇi vidádhad víśvasya miṣató vaśī́ || 
2 From that same billowy flood of sea the Year was afterwards produced, Ordainer of the days nights, Lord over all who close the eye. 
sūryācandramásau dhātā́ yathāpūrvám akalpayat |
dívaṃ ca pr̥thivī́ṃ ca antárikṣam átho súvaḥ || 
3 Dhātar, the great Creator, then formed in due order Sun and Moon. He formed in order Heaven and Earth, the regions of the air, and light.
