Oh thou great judge, Varuna
Day after day we break thy holy laws
Oh let us not be yielded up to Death to be destroyèd
To be destroyèd in thy wrath

To gain forgiveness, Varuna
In deepest woe I raise to thee my chant:
Behold, it riseth up towards thy holy throne to beg
For mercy
As flies the bird unto his nest

Thou knowest all, Varuna
Thou knowest the pathway of the moon and wind
Thy laws throughout eternity endure, thou mighty
Ruler
And to thy judgement all must come

He doth appear! My cry is answerеd!
I am delivered from my sin
