That translation is stolen from Wikipedia, my source is from here:
https://en.battlestarwiki.org/Music_of_Battlestar_Galactica_(RDM)
Then I suggest you add the source links in your translations. Even if you had added it in the song page, it must be added to your translations as well. Don't assume people will automatically think that the link in the song page = the source of the translation.
I think Ralph T. H. Griffith, the actual author of this translation, deserves a mention as well.
"of Savitr the God"
No need to capitalize "god" here, because Savitr was only one of the many gods of the Indo-Aryans.
