Rigveda 3.62.10

ॐ भूर्भुवः स्वः ।oṃ bhūrbhuvaḥ svaḥ |

तत्सवितुर्वरेण्यं भर्गो देवस्य धीमहि ।tatsaviturvareṇyaṃ bhargo devasya dhīmahi |

Meaning

We meditate on the adorable radiance of the divine Savitr; may it inspire our understanding. (The opening “Om bhur bhuvah svah” is added in recitation.)

हम सविता देव के वरणीय तेज का ध्यान करते हैं; वह हमारी बुद्धि को प्रेरित करे। (आरम्भ का “ॐ भूर्भुवः स्वः” जप में जोड़ा जाता है।)

The meaning is our own short paraphrase, not a word-for-word translation.
