Translation -
О Lord, bestow lustre on our intellectuals; bestow lustre on our ruler-administrators; bestow. lustre on our producers of wealth as well as on our labour community. May you bestow lustre on me through your own lustre. (1)
Notes -
Bestow lustre on the Brāhmaṇas (intellectuals) in our society, on the Ksatriyas (warrior-administrators), on the Vaisyas (entrepreneurs) and the Sūdras (labourers). Sūdras are not to be lustreless, not to be deprecated.
