May Mitra, Varuna, AryamAn, Indra, Brihaspathi and the
all-pervading Vishnu be propitious to us and grant us
welfare and bliss. Obeisance to Brahman. Vayu, I bow
down to thee. Thou art  verily perceptible Brahman. I
shall proclaim thou art perceptible Brahman.
Thou art Rtha. Thou  art sathya. May that protect me.
May that protect the speaker. May that protect me. May
that  protect the teacher. Om, may there be peace, may
there be peace, may there be peace.

Om shanthi: shanthi: shanthi:

May the manthra (that is studied) protect us both
together. May it protect both of us together. 
May we both gain power. Let the study of both of us be
powerful. May we not hate each other. 
Om, may there be peace, may there be peace, may there
be peace.
