Sanskrit Text

एकं चक्रं वर्तते द्वादशारं प्रधि;षण्णाभिमेकाक्षममृतस्य धारणम् यस्मिन्देवा अधि विश्वे विषक्ता;स्तावश्विनौ मुञ्चतो मा विषीदतम्

English Translation

The wheel of time represented by the year has also a nave, the six seasons. It has twelve spokes represented by the twelve signs of the Zodiac. This wheel of Time displays the fruits of all beings' actions. The Presiding Deities of Time obey this wheel. Bound as I am to its bound, O Ashvinis, makes me free from this wheel of Time.
