यदहर्ब्रह्मणः प्रोक्तं सहस्रयुगसंमितम्। तस्य त्वमादिरन्तश्च कालज्ञैः परिकीर्तितः
That day of Brahma, which is said to be equal to a thousand ages, you are declared by those who know time to be its beginning and its end.
मनूनां मनुपुत्राणां जगतोऽमानवस्य च। मन्वन्तराणां सर्वेषामीश्वराणां त्वमीश्वरः
You are the lord of all Manus, their sons, the world, both human and non-human, of all the Manvantaras, and of all rulers.
संहारकाले संप्राप्ते तव क्रोधविनिःसृतः। संवर्तकाग्निस्त्रैलोक्यं भस्मीकृत्यावतिष्ठते
When the time of destruction arrives, the fire of dissolution, released from your wrath, stands after reducing the three worlds to ashes.
त्वद्दीधितिसमुत्पन्ना नानावर्ण महाघनाः। सैरावताः साशनयः कुर्वन्त्याभूतसंप्लवम्
Clouds of many colors, massive and born from your radiance, accompanied by lightning, cause the great flood of dissolution.
कृत्वा द्वादशधाऽऽत्मानं द्वादशादित्यतां गतः। संहृत्यैकार्णवं सर्वं त्वं शोषयसि रश्मिभिः
Having made yourself twelvefold, assuming the form of the twelve Adityas, you dry up everything into a single ocean with your rays.
त्वामिन्द्रमाहुस्त्वं रुद्रस्त्वं विष्णुस्त्वं प्रजापतिः। त्वमग्निस्त्वं मनः सूक्ष्मं प्रभुस्त्वं ब्रह्मशाश्वतं
They call you Indra; you are Rudra, you are Vishnu, you are Prajapati; you are Agni, you are the subtle mind, you are the eternal Brahman, the Lord.
त्वं हंसः सविता भानुरंशुमाली वृषाकपिः। विवस्वान्मिहिरः पूषा मित्रो धर्मस्तथैव च
You are the Swan, Savita, Bhanu, the one adorned with rays, Vrishakapi, Vivasvat, Mihira, Pusha, Mitra, and likewise Dharma.
सहस्ररश्मिरादित्यस्तपनस्त्वं गवां पतिः। मार्तण्डोऽर्को रविः सूर्यः शरण्यो दिनकृत्तथा
You are the thousand-rayed Aditya, the burning one, the lord of cows, Martanda, Arka, Ravi, Surya, the refuge, and the maker of day.
दिवाकरः सप्तसप्तिर्धामकेशी विरोचनः। आशुगामी तमोघ्नश्च हरिताश्वश्च कीर्त्यसे
You are Divakara, Saptasapti, Dhamakeshi, Virocana, swift-moving, dispeller of darkness, and famed as the one with green horses.
सप्तम्यागथवा षष्ठ्यां भक्त्या पूजां करोति यः। अनिर्विण्णोऽनहंकारी तं लक्ष्मीर्भजते नरम्
Whoever, with devotion and without weariness or pride, performs worship on the seventh or sixth day, to him Lakshmi grants her favor.
न तेषामापदः सन्ति नाधयो व्याधयस्तथा। ये तवानन्यमनसा कुर्वन्त्यर्चनवन्दनम्
Those who worship and honor you with undistracted mind have no calamities, no sorrows, nor diseases.
सर्वरोगैर्विरहिताः सर्वपापाविवर्जिताः। त्वद्भावभक्ताः सुखिनो भवन्ति चिरजीविनः
Devotees who contemplate you are free from all diseases, untouched by all sins, happy, and live long lives.
त्वं ममापन्नकामस्य सर्वातिथ्यं चिकीर्षतः। अन्नमन्नपते दातुमभितः श्रद्धयाऽर्हसि
You, O Lord of Food, are worthy to give food to me, who am afflicted by want and wish to honor all guests, with faith on every side.
येच तेऽनुचराः सर्वे पादोपान्तं समाश्रिताः। माठरारुणदण्डाद्यास्तांस्तान्वन्देऽशनिक्षुभान्
And all your attendants who have taken refuge at your feet—those named Mathara, Aruna, Danda, and others—I bow to them, who are agitated like thunderbolts.
क्षुभया सहिता मैत्री याश्चान्या भूतमातरः। ताश्च सर्वा नमस्यामि पान्तु मां शरणागतम् ।।]
And all the other Mothers of beings, who are united with agitation and friendship, I also bow to them all; may they protect me, who have sought refuge.
कण्ठदघ्ने जले स्थित्वा मन्त्रैः स्तोत्रैश्च तोषितः। ततो दिवाकरः प्रीतो दर्शयामास पाण्डवम्। दीप्यमानः स्ववपुषा ज्वलन्निव हुताशनः
Standing in water up to his throat, having pleased him with mantras and hymns, then the delighted Sun revealed himself to the Pandava, shining with his own form, blazing like sacrificial fire.
यत्तेऽभिलषितं किंचित्तत्त्वं सर्वमवाप्स्यसि। अहमन्नं प्रदास्यामि सप्त पञ्च च ते समाः
Whatever you have desired in truth, you shall obtain it all. I will grant you food for seven and five years.
गृह्णीष्व पिठरं ताम्रं मया दत्तं नराधिप। यावद्वर्त्स्यति पाञ्चाली पात्रेणानेन सुव्रत
Take this copper vessel, O king, which I have given. As long as Draupadi uses this vessel, O steadfast one, it will suffice.
फलमूलामिषं शाकं संस्कृतं यन्महानसे। चतुर्विधं तदन्नाद्यमक्षय्यं ते भविष्यति। इतश्चतुर्दशे वर्षे भूयो राज्यमवाप्स्यसि
Fruits, roots, meat, and vegetables—whatever is prepared in the kitchen—these four kinds of food and drink will be inexhaustible for you. And in the fourteenth year from now, you shall regain your kingdom.
एवमुक्त्वा तु भगवांस्तत्रैवान्तरधीयत
Having spoken thus, the Blessed One vanished there itself.
लब्ध्वा वरं तु कौन्तेयो जलादुत्तीर्य धर्मवित्। जग्राह पादौ धौम्यस्य भ्रातॄंश्च परिषस्वजे
Having received the boon, the son of Kunti, versed in righteousness, came out of the water, grasped Dhaumya's feet, and embraced his brothers.
द्रौपद्या सह-संगम्य पश्यमानोऽपयात्प्राभुः। महानसे तदान्नं तु साधयामास पाण्डवः
Meeting together with Draupadi, the lordly Pandava entered the kitchen and began to prepare the food.
संस्कृतं प्रसवं याति स्वल्पमन्नं चतुर्विधम्। अक्षय्यं वर्धते चान्नं तेनाभोजयत द्विजान्
The prepared food, though little and of four kinds, became inexhaustible and increased; with it he fed the twice-born.
भुक्तवत्सु च विप्रेषु भोजयित्वाऽनुजानपि। शेषं विघससंज्ञं तुपश्चाद्भुङ्क्ते युधिष्ठिरः
After the Brahmins had eaten and his brothers had been fed, Yudhishthira would then eat what remained, called vighasa.
युधिष्ठिरं भोजयित्वा शेषमश्नाति पार्षती। [द्रौपद्यां भुज्यमानायां तदन्नं क्षयमेति च ।।]
After feeding Yudhishthira, Draupadi would eat the leftovers; when Draupadi ate, the food would be finished.
एवं दिवाकरात्प्राप्य दिवाकरसमप्रभः। कामान्मनोभिलषितान्ब्राह्मणेभ्योऽददात्प्रभुः
Thus, having received from the Sun, the lord, radiant as the Sun, gave to the Brahmins all the desires of their hearts.
पुरोहितपुरोगाश्च तिथिनक्षत्रपर्वसु। इज्यार्थे संप्रवर्तन्ते विधिमन्त्रप्रमाणतः
Led by the priest, on lunar days, star days, and festivals, they performed sacrifices according to rule and mantra.
ततः कृतस्वस्त्ययना धौम्येन सह पाण्डवाः। द्विजसङ्घैः परिवृताः प्रययुः काम्यकं वनम्
Then, having performed auspicious rites with Dhaumya, the Pandavas, surrounded by groups of Brahmins, set out for the Kamyaka forest.
पुष्पोपहारबलिभिर्बहुशश्च यथाविधि। सर्वात्मभूतं संपूज्य यतप्राणो जितेन्द्रियः
With offerings of flowers and oblations, many times and according to rule, having worshipped the all-pervading one, self-restrained and with senses subdued—
स्तवेन केन विप्रर्षे स तु राजा युधिष्ठिरः। विप्रार्थमाराधितवान्सूर्यमद्भुतविक्रमम्
With a certain hymn, O best of sages, that king Yudhishthira worshipped the Sun of wondrous might for the sake of the Brahmins.
