Translation:

 O God, greatness, is your most deserving emblem,

                                                For it governs both the material and the spiritual realm

 You are the wisest of the wise in the universe,                                  

                                                You are the sole sustainer of all worshippers

 No intellect can ever match that of yours,

                                                No sage can unravel your mysterious lores

 I am grateful to you my Worshipful One,

                                                For you are my guide and protector as one

 You are the protector to the lonely and meek,

                                                So please hold my hand through the path that I seek

Open the floodgates of your blessings and bounty,

                                                Shower me in both realms with pride aplenty

 I have no other besides your mighty presence,

                                                ’Tis only your being that my tired soul yearns

(Original translation by Dr. Ali Makki)

Translation:

In humble adoration, with hands outstretched, I pray to You, O God! First of all, through Your beneficent spirit vouchsafe

 to me all righteousness of action and all wisdom of the Good Mind, so I may bring joy to the Soul of Creation.

Ashem vohU vahishtem asti

Translation:

Righteousness is the best good. It is radiant happiness. Happiness comes to the person to whom righteousness

Translation:

On account of my humility, do purify me, O Ahura, Lord of Life. Through Your most beneficent spirit, grant me strength,

in return for my prayers, O Mazda, Lord of Wisdom and bestower of good things. 

Through Righteousness, bestow upon me strength and power and on account of my good thoughts grant me supremacy.

To enjoy happiness, Farseeing One, reveal unto me Your priceless gifts. O Ahura, grant me those blessings which flow

through Khshathra, Your spiritual and just power, and through Your Good Mind. O Beneficent Aramaiti, the symbol of love,

peace and faith, grant us insight through truth.

To You, O Mazda, Zoroaster dedicates his own life as a gift along with the excellence of his good thoughts.

He offers his conscious following to Asha, the spirit of truth, by dedicating his whole strength to the best words and deeds.

mental states, so that I may lead my companions to happiness.
