सुगो हि वो अर्यमन्मित्र पन्था अनृक्षरो वरुण साधुरस्ति । तेनादित्या अधि वोचता नो यच्छता नो दुष्परिहन्तु शर्म
For your path, O Aryaman, Mitra, is easy and straight, O Varuṇa, it is good; by that, O Ādityas, speak to us, grant us shelter that is not to be overcome.
पिपर्तु नो अदिती राजपुत्राति द्वेषांस्यर्यमा सुगेभिः । बृहन्मित्रस्य वरुणस्य शर्मोप स्याम पुरुवीरा अरिष्टाः
May Aditi, mother of kings, protect us from hatred; may Aryaman with easy paths; under the wide shelter of Mitra and Varuṇa, may we be unharmed, rich in men.
तिस्रो भूमीर्धारयन्त्रीँरुत द्यून्त्रीणि व्रता विदथे अन्तरेषाम् । ऋतेनादित्या महि वो महित्वं तदर्यमन्वरुण मित्र चारु
Three earths they uphold, and also three heavens, three laws among their gatherings; by truth, O Ādityas, is your greatness great, that, O Aryaman, Varuṇa, Mitra, is lovely.
त्री रोचना दिव्या धारयन्त हिरण्ययाः शुचयो धारपूताः । अस्वप्नजो अनिमिषा अदब्धा उरुशंसा ऋजवे मर्त्याय
Three shining realms of heaven they uphold, golden, pure, purified by streams; sleepless, unwinking, unfailing, wide in praise, for the straight mortal.
त्वं विश्वेषां वरुणासि राजा ये च देवा असुर ये च मर्ताः । शतं नो रास्व शरदो विचक्षेऽश्यामायूंषि सुधितानि पूर्वा
You, Varuṇa, are king of all, both gods and mortals, O Asura; grant us a hundred autumns, O far-seeing one, may we enjoy long and well-ordered lives.
न दक्षिणा वि चिकिते न सव्या न प्राचीनमादित्या नोत पश्चा । पाक्या चिद्वसवो धीर्या चिद्युष्मानीतो अभयं ज्योतिरश्याम्
Neither right nor left, neither east nor west, O Ādityas, is hidden from you; even the secret, O Vasus, even the thought, under your guidance may we see the fearless light.
यो राजभ्य ऋतनिभ्यो ददाश यं वर्धयन्ति पुष्टयश्च नित्याः । स रेवान्याति प्रथमो रथेन वसुदावा विदथेषु प्रशस्तः
He who has given to the kings who uphold truth, whom constant prosperity nourishes and increases, he advances with wealth, foremost in his chariot, renowned in the assemblies.
शुचिरपः सूयवसा अदब्ध उप क्षेति वृद्धवयाः सुवीरः । नकिष्टं घ्नन्त्यन्तितो न दूराद्य आदित्यानां भवति प्रणीतौ
Pure, possessing abundant waters, unassailable, he dwells with increased strength, blessed with good sons; none strike him from near or far, and he comes under the guidance of the Ādityas.
अदिते मित्र वरुणोत मृळ यद्वो वयं चकृमा कच्चिदागः । उर्वश्यामभयं ज्योतिरिन्द्र मा नो दीर्घा अभि नशन्तमिस्राः
Aditi, Mitra, and Varuṇa, be gracious; if we have committed any offense against you, grant us wide, fearless light, Indra, and let not long-lasting misfortunes overwhelm us.
उभे अस्मै पीपयतः समीची दिवो वृष्टिं सुभगो नाम पुष्यन् । उभा क्षयावाजयन्याति पृत्सूभावर्धौ भवतः साधू अस्मै
Both, the heavens, pour forth together for him, bestowing rain; the fortunate one receives a noble name. Both, the dwellings, he conquers in battle; both, the increases, become favorable to him.
या वो माया अभिद्रुहे यजत्राः पाशा आदित्या रिपवे विचृत्ताः । अश्वीव ताँ अति येषं रथेनारिष्टा उरावा शर्मन्स्याम
Your wondrous powers, O worshipful Ādityas, the snares you have set for the enemy, let them be cut apart; as a horse escapes with its chariot, may we be unharmed and find wide shelter.
माहं मघोनो वरुण प्रियस्य भूरिदाव्न आ विदं शूनमापेः । मा रायो राजन्सुयमादव स्थां बृहद्वदेम विदथे सुवीराः
May I not, O generous Varuṇa, beloved and bountiful, encounter ruin or misfortune; may I not lose wealth, O king, through ill conduct; let us speak greatly in the assembly, strong and noble.
इदं कवेरादित्यस्य स्वराजो विश्वानि सान्त्यभ्यस्तु मह्ना । अति यो मन्द्रो यजथाय देवः सुकीर्तिं भिक्षे वरुणस्य भूरेः
This is the radiance of the wise Āditya, sovereign of the sun; by his greatness, he brings all things to rest. He, gentle and divine, is worshipped, and I seek the abundant fame of Varuṇa.
तव व्रते सुभगासः स्याम स्वाध्यो वरुण तुष्टुवांसः । उपायन उषसां गोमतीनामग्नयो न जरमाणा अनु द्यून्
May we be blessed under your rule, Varuṇa, delighting in your praise; like the fires that follow the rich dawns, may we approach day by day, never growing old.
तव स्याम पुरुवीरस्य शर्मन्नुरुशंसस्य वरुण प्रणेतः । यूयं नः पुत्रा अदितेरदब्धा अभि क्षमध्वं युज्याय देवाः
May we be in the protection of you, Varuṇa, leader of many heroes, of wide renown; you, sons of Aditi, flawless, may you grant us favor, O worthy gods.
प्र सीमादित्यो असृजद्विधर्ताँ ऋतं सिन्धवो वरुणस्य यन्ति । न श्राम्यन्ति न वि मुचन्त्येते वयो न पप्तू रघुया परिज्मन्
The Āditya, creator, has sent them forth; the rivers flow according to Varuṇa's order. They neither tire nor are released; like birds, they swiftly circle in their course.
वि मच्छ्रथाय रशनामिवाग ऋध्याम ते वरुण खामृतस्य । मा तन्तुश्छेदि वयतो धियं मे मा मात्रा शार्यपसः पुर ऋतोः
For my chariot, loosen the strap as one would, Varuṇa, to reach the realm of immortality; let not the thread of my life be cut, nor my wisdom, nor the measure of my righteous deeds.
अपो सु म्यक्ष वरुण भियसं मत्सम्राळृतावोऽनु मा गृभाय । दामेव वत्साद्वि मुमुग्ध्यंहो नहि त्वदारे निमिषश्चनेशे
O Varuṇa, let the waters be gentle for me; remove fear, O king, uphold me in righteousness. Release me from sin as a calf from its tether; for none but you can restrain or release.
मा नो वधैर्वरुण ये त इष्टावेनः कृण्वन्तमसुर भ्रीणन्ति । मा ज्योतिषः प्रवसथानि गन्म वि षू मृधः शिश्रथो जीवसे नः
Let not those who are hostile, Varuṇa, who seek to harm us, bring us to ruin; let us not stray from the paths of light, nor encounter conflict, but live long.
नमः पुरा ते वरुणोत नूनमुतापरं तुविजात ब्रवाम । त्वे हि कं पर्वते न श्रितान्यप्रच्युतानि दूळभ व्रतानि
We offer you homage, Varuṇa, as before and now, and also in the future, O mighty-born; for in you, as in a mountain, are steadfast, unshaken, difficult-to-break vows.
पर ऋणा सावीरध मत्कृतानि माहं राजन्नन्यकृतेन भोजम् । अव्युष्टा इन्नु भूयसीरुषास आ नो जीवान्वरुण तासु शाधि
Remove the debts of sin I have incurred, O king; let me not suffer for another's wrongdoing. May the dawns, bright and many, shine forth; grant us life, Varuṇa, in them.
यो मे राजन्युज्यो वा सखा वा स्वप्ने भयं भीरवे मह्यमाह । स्तेनो वा यो दिप्सति नो वृको वा त्वं तस्माद्वरुण पाह्यस्मान्
If a king, a companion, or anyone in a dream has spoken fearful words to me, or if a thief or a wolf seeks to harm us, protect us from them, Varuṇa.
माहं मघोनो वरुण प्रियस्य भूरिदाव्न आ विदं शूनमापेः । मा रायो राजन्सुयमादव स्थां बृहद्वदेम विदथे सुवीराः
May I not, O generous Varuṇa, beloved and bountiful, encounter ruin or misfortune; may I not lose wealth, O king, through ill conduct; let us speak greatly in the assembly, strong and noble.
धृतव्रता आदित्या इषिरा आरे मत्कर्त रहसूरिवागः । शृण्वतो वो वरुण मित्र देवा भद्रस्य विद्वाँ अवसे हुवे वः
The Ādityas, steadfast in their vows, powerful, distant from my wrongdoing, knowing secrets, listen to you, Varuṇa, Mitra, O gods; knowing what is auspicious, I call upon you for help.
यूयं देवाः प्रमतिर्यूयमोजो यूयं द्वेषांसि सनुतर्युयोत । अभिक्षत्तारो अभि च क्षमध्वमद्या च नो मृळयतापरं च
You, O gods, are the generous givers; you are strength; you drive away hatred and protect us. You who approach, come near and support us; grant us mercy today and hereafter.
किमू नु वः कृणवामापरेण किं सनेन वसव आप्येन । यूयं नो मित्रावरुणादिते च स्वस्तिमिन्द्रामरुतो दधात
What more can we do for you, O Wealthy Ones, with this or with that ancient offering? You, Mitra, Varuṇa, Aditi, Indra, Maruts—grant us well-being.
हये देवा यूयमिदापय स्थ ते मृळत नाधमानाय मह्यम् । मा वो रथो मध्यमवाळृते भून्मा युष्मावत्स्वापिषु श्रमिष्म
Indeed, O gods, you are present here; show mercy to me who am not at fault. May your chariot not pass me by in the middle; may we not grow weary while resting in you.
प्र व एको मिमय भूर्यागो यन्मा पितेव कितवं शशास । आरे पाशा आरे अघानि देवा मा माधि पुत्रे विमिव ग्रभीष्ट
One alone has measured out the many gifts, as a father instructs his foolish son. Keep far away the snares, far away the evils, O gods; do not let misfortune seize me or my child.
अर्वाञ्चो अद्या भवता यजत्रा आ वो हार्दि भयमानो व्ययेयम् । त्राध्वं नो देवा निजुरो वृकस्य त्राध्वं कर्तादवपदो यजत्राः
Come near today, O worshipful gods; with confidence in your hearts, may I be fearless. Protect us, O gods, from the howling wolf; protect us, O worshipful ones, from the one who brings us down.
माहं मघोनो वरुण प्रियस्य भूरिदाव्न आ विदं शूनमापेः । मा रायो राजन्सुयमादव स्थां बृहद्वदेम विदथे सुवीराः
May I, O generous Varuṇa, not fall into the emptiness of one who has lost your favor, you who give abundantly. O king, may we not lose wealth through our own fault; may we speak mightily in the assembly, victorious with heroes.
