Transliterated Text:

ýãm då mainyû athrâcâ
ashâcâ côish rânôibyâ xshnûtem
hyat urvatem cazdôñghvadebyô
tat nê mazdâ vîdvanôi vaocâ
hizvâ thwahyâ ånghô
ýâ jvañtô vîspêñg vâurayâ.

Translated Text:

The happiness You grant, has been promised
to the two parties through Your mental fire and righteousness.
It is a matter of principle for the discerning.
Wise One, for our knowledge,
speak with the very words of Your mouth.
It will help me guide all the living to choose aright.

Commentary:

God has granted happiness for all, the rightful and the wrongful. It only comes through mental enlightenment and righteous conduct. It is this enlightenment which Zarathushtra asks God to grant so that he guides humanity to the right course of life.

Pondering Point:

“True happiness is attainable by all, but it is only gained through enlightenment.”
