The Hymns of the Rigveda/Book 7/Hymn 53

1. AS priest with solemn rites and adorations I worship Heaven and Earth, the High and Holy.
     To them, great Parents of the Gods, have sages of ancient time, singing, assigned precedence.
2. With newest hymns set in the seat of Order, those the Two Parents, born before all others,
     Come, Heaven and Earth, with the Celestial People, hither to us, for strong is your protection.
3. Yea, Heaven and Earth, ye hold in your possession full many a treasure for the liberal giver.
     Grant us that wealth which comes in free abundance. Preserve us evermore, ye Gods, with blessings.
