IX.
In the name of the great life,
be glorified the noble light.


I rose early from my sleep,
I had seen rich splendor.
Rich splendor I had seen
and light without end.
I was clothed with robes of splendor,
and light was placed around my shoulders.
A wreath of ether was placed around my head,
the tribes had placed the wreath on me.
Uthras recited with him,
luminous beings responded to his voice.
He shook and raised the reclining ones
from their sleep.


He said to them:
"Rise, you who are lying down,
rise, you who have stumbled, rise.
Arise, honor and praise the great life,
praise the image, the image of life,
which shines and glows in noble light".


And praise be to life.
