O Bhaskara (sun), who blazes like gold or fire, who is worshipped by the celestials, the Pitris, the Yakshas and who is adored by Asuras, Nishacharas and Siddhas, I bow you for the acquisition of prosperity.
सुरगणपितृयक्षसेवितं ह्यसुरनिशाचरसिद्धवन्दितम्। वरकनकहुताशनप्रभं प्रणिपतितोऽस्मि हिताय भास्करम्॥
