Meaning of the Prayer Hymn:

 So, That shall be worshipped as That itself!
One, who knows it so, is loved by every creature!

 Notes: 

1. tadvan - That

2.  That shall be worshipped as That itself
This Kena Upanishad had earlier stated that,  Do not worship the symbols of God 
within a limited mental contour. Here, it summarizes that point,
realize and worship that Omnipresent as the Omnipresent itself.
When such a wide view is achieved, that person sees God everywhere
and loves everyone. That person is loved by everyone.
