O Pavamana, place me in that deathless, undecaying world
Wherein the light of heaven is set, and everlasting luster shines. ...

Make me immortal in that realm where dwells the King, Vivasvan's son,
Where is the secret shrine of heaven, where are those waters young and fresh. ...

Make me immortal in that realm where they move even as they list,
In the third sphere of inmost heaven where lucid worlds are full of light. ...

Make me immortal in that realm of eager wish and strong desire,
The region of the radiant Moon, where food and full delight are found. ...

Make me immortal in that realm where happiness and transports, where
Joys and felicities combine, and longing wishes are fulfilled. ...
