WHEN Agni, the Flame awakes, all other gods awake –
Vayu and Soma and Indra and Aditi –
Aditi, the Mother, one and indivisible, and the Word inviolate.
All is burnt, burnt, burnt to ashes!
It is the same, the Fire and the offering and the offerer;
It is the same, the Energy above, the Energy below, the
Energy ascending, descending and surrounding.
It is the Self that is the sun, the cosmos, the Vast!
Master of the Cavern, Ruler of the House, Sovereign of the Heavens;
The universe is His bow and He draws it with a loud clang;
He is the commander, He is the Voice, OM.
Awake, O Word; awake, O wild Winds!
Awake, O Tempests; awake, Lightning!
Out of the ocean of the heart, awake, O Himalaya!
Awake, O dancing Beauties of Heaven!
Awake, O Supreme! O Supreme, awake, appear
Upon the waters of the Deluge, O Mental Being – Man and Woman!
