अयांसमग्ने सुक्षितिं जनायायांसमु मघवद्भ्यः सुवृक्तिम् । विश्वं तद्भद्रं यदवन्ति देवा बृहद्वदेम विदथे सुवीराः
May we bring you, Agni, to a good dwelling for the people; may we bring you to generous praise for the bountiful; may all that is auspicious, which the gods protect, be ours; may we speak greatly in the assembly, strong in men.
तुभ्यं हिन्वानो वसिष्ट गा अपोऽधुक्षन्सीमविभिरद्रिभिर्नरः । पिबेन्द्र स्वाहा प्रहुतं वषट्कृतं होत्रादा सोमं प्रथमो य ईशिषे
For you, O Vasiṣṭha, the men have poured forth the waters, milking them with channels and stones; drink, O Indra, with svāhā, the well-offered, vaṣaṭ-acclaimed soma, first from the hotṛ, you who are the lord.
यज्ञैः सम्मिश्लाः पृषतीभिरृष्टिभिर्यामञ्छुभ्रासो अञ्जिषु प्रिया उत । आसद्या बर्हिर्भरतस्य सूनवः पोत्रादा सोमं पिबता दिवो नरः
Blended with sacrifices, with speckled steeds, with spears, shining, anointed, and dear, having taken their seat on the sacred grass, O sons of Bharata, drink the soma from the potṛ, O men of heaven.
अमेव नः सुहवा आ हि गन्तन नि बर्हिषि सदतना रणिष्टन । अथा मन्दस्व जुजुषाणो अन्धसस्त्वष्टर्देवेभिर्जनिभिः सुमद्गणः
Thus, O gracious ones, come to us, sit on the sacred grass, and be victorious; then rejoice, delighting in the soma, O Tvaṣṭar, with the divine generations, O joyful company.
आ वक्षि देवाँ इह विप्र यक्षि चोशन्होतर्नि षदा योनिषु त्रिषु । प्रति वीहि प्रस्थितं सोम्यं मधु पिबाग्नीध्रात्तव भागस्य तृप्णुहि
Come, O gods, here, inspired one, enjoy, O Hotṛ, sit always in the three seats; accept the soma that has been poured out, drink the honeyed one from the Agnīdh's portion, be satisfied with your share.
एष स्य ते तन्वो नृम्णवर्धनः सह ओजः प्रदिवि बाह्वोर्हितः । तुभ्यं सुतो मघवन्तुभ्यमाभृतस्त्वमस्य ब्राह्मणादा तृपत्पिब
This, indeed, is the strength of your form, increasing manliness, power and vigor placed in your arms; for you is the pressed soma, for you the offering; you, from the brāhmaṇa, take and drink to satisfaction.
जुषेथां यज्ञं बोधतं हवस्य मे सत्तो होता निविदः पूर्व्या अनु । अच्छा राजाना नम एत्यावृतं प्रशास्त्रादा पिबतं सोम्यं मधु
May you both accept the sacrifice, be aware of my invocation, seated as Hotṛ, following the ancient announcements; to you, O kings, this reverence is offered, come, drink the honeyed soma from the proclaimer.
मन्दस्व होत्रादनु जोषमन्धसोऽध्वर्यवः स पूर्णां वष्ट्यासिचम् । तस्मा एतं भरत तद्वशो ददिर्होत्रात्सोमं द्रविणोदः पिब ऋतुभिः
Rejoice in the oblation, as you desire the soma, O Hotṛ; the Adhvaryus pour out the full libation for him; therefore, O Bharata, give this to him as he wishes, drink the soma from the Hotṛ, O bestower of wealth, in due order.
यमु पूर्वमहुवे तमिदं हुवे सेदु हव्यो ददिर्यो नाम पत्यते । अध्वर्युभिः प्रस्थितं सोम्यं मधु पोत्रात्सोमं द्रविणोदः पिब ऋतुभिः
Whom I invoked before, him now I invoke—let him be the one to be called, the giver who bears the name; drink the honeyed soma, pressed by the Adhvaryus, from the Potṛ, O bestower of wealth, in due order.
मेद्यन्तु ते वह्नयो येभिरीयसेऽरिषण्यन्वीळयस्वा वनस्पते । आयूया धृष्णो अभिगूर्या त्वं नेष्ट्रात्सोमं द्रविणोदः पिब ऋतुभिः
May your fires be kindled, by which you proceed, uninjured, O Lord of the Forest, be gracious; for long life, O bold one, with your protection, drink the soma from the Neṣṭṛ, O bestower of wealth, in due order.
अपाद्धोत्रादुत पोत्रादमत्तोत नेष्ट्रादजुषत प्रयो हितम् । तुरीयं पात्रममृक्तममर्त्यं द्रविणोदाः पिबतु द्राविणोदसः
From the Hotṛ, from the Potṛ, from the Neṣṭṛ, they have drunk, they have enjoyed the prepared offering; the fourth vessel, unsoiled, immortal, let the bestowers of wealth drink from the bestower of wealth.
अर्वाञ्चमद्य यय्यं नृवाहणं रथं युञ्जाथामिह वां विमोचनम् । पृङ्क्तं हवींषि मधुना हि कं गतमथा सोमं पिबतं वाजिनीवसू
Today, harness your excellent, man-carrying chariot, bring it here for your release; mix the offerings with honey, come here, then drink the soma, O possessors of wealth in horses.
जोष्यग्ने समिधं जोष्याहुतिं जोषि ब्रह्म जन्यं जोषि सुष्टुतिम् । विश्वेभिर्विश्वाँ ऋतुना वसो मह उशन्देवाँ उशतः पायया हविः
Accept, O Agni, the kindling, accept the oblation, accept the sacred utterance, accept the good praise; with all the gods, O treasure-giver, with all the seasons, O shining god, make the offering pleasing.
उदु ष्य देवः सविता सवाय शश्वत्तमं तदपा वह्निरस्थात् । नूनं देवेभ्यो वि हि धाति रत्नमथाभजद्वीतिहोत्रं स्वस्तौ
The god Savitṛ has risen for impelling; the ever-shining fire has taken its place among the waters; now he bestows the treasure upon the gods, then he apportions the sacrificial portion for well-being.
विश्वस्य हि श्रुष्टये देव ऊर्ध्वः प्र बाहवा पृथुपाणिः सिसर्ति । आपश्चिदस्य व्रत आ निमृग्रा अयं चिद्वातो रमते परिज्मन्
For indeed, O god, for the hearing of all, he stretches forth his broad-handed arms upward; even the waters keep his law, and even this wind delights in his circuit.
आशुभिश्चिद्यान्वि मुचाति नूनमरीरमदतमानं चिदेतोः । अह्यर्षूणां चिन्न्ययाँ अविष्यामनु व्रतं सवितुर्मोक्यागात्
He now surely releases the bound, even one who is unsteady and slothful; even among the swift, among the restless, he follows the ordinance of Savitar, which is to be loosed.
पुनः समव्यद्विततं वयन्ती मध्या कर्तोर्न्यधाच्छक्म धीरः । उत्संहायास्थाद्व्यृतूँरदर्धररमतिः सविता देव आगात्
Again the wise one set the woven web together, placing the mid-region in the midst of the maker; having drawn forth the fountain, he stood by the seasons, Savitar the god approached with his intention.
नानौकांसि दुर्यो विश्वमायुर्वि तिष्ठते प्रभवः शोको अग्नेः । ज्येष्ठं माता सूनवे भागमाधादन्वस्य केतमिषितं सवित्रा
No houses, no evil, nor the whole span of life, can withstand the overwhelming blaze of Agni; the mother assigned the eldest share to the son, following the sign appointed by Savitar.
समाववर्ति विष्ठितो जिगीषुर्विश्वेषां कामश्चरताममाभूत् । शश्वाँ अपो विकृतं हित्व्यागादनु व्रतं सवितुर्दैव्यस्य
He, established together, desiring to win, became the desire of all who move; ever, having abandoned what is deformed, he went forth, following the ordinance of divine Savitar.
त्वया हितमप्यमप्सु भागं धन्वान्वा मृगयसो वि तस्थुः । वनानि विभ्यो नकिरस्य तानि व्रता देवस्य सवितुर्मिनन्ति
The portion set in the waters by you, and on the plains, the hunters have distributed; the forests, too, none of them diminish the ordinances of the god Savitar.
याद्राध्यं वरुणो योनिमप्यमनिशितं निमिषि जर्भुराणः । विश्वो मार्ताण्डो व्रजमा पशुर्गात्स्थशो जन्मानि सविता व्याकः
Whatever seat Varuṇa has established, whatever unrestrained, trembling, or blinking, all the offspring of the Sun, all cattle, Savitar has unfolded their births in order.
न यस्येन्द्रो वरुणो न मित्रो व्रतमर्यमा न मिनन्ति रुद्रः । नारातयस्तमिदं स्वस्ति हुवे देवं सवितारं नमोभिः
Whose ordinance neither Indra, nor Varuṇa, nor Mitra, nor Aryaman, nor Rudra, nor adversaries diminish—him, this god Savitar, I invoke with reverence for our welfare.
भगं धियं वाजयन्तः पुरंधिं नराशंसो ग्नास्पतिर्नो अव्याः । आये वामस्य संगथे रयीणां प्रिया देवस्य सवितुः स्याम
May Bhaga, thought, strength, liberality, Naraśaṃsa, and the lord of women protect us; may we be dear to the god Savitar in the assembly, in the gathering of riches.
अस्मभ्यं तद्दिवो अद्भ्यः पृथिव्यास्त्वया दत्तं काम्यं राध आ गात् । शं यत्स्तोतृभ्य आपये भवात्युरुशंसाय सवितर्जरित्रे
May that desirable gift, given by you from heaven, from the waters, from the earth, come to us; may what is auspicious for the praiser, for protection, come from Savitar, for wide renown.
ग्रावाणेव तदिदर्थं जरेथे गृध्रेव वृक्षं निधिमन्तमच्छ । ब्रह्माणेव विदथ उक्थशासा दूतेव हव्या जन्या पुरुत्रा
Like stones for pressing, you are stirred for this purpose; like a vulture toward a tree rich in treasure; like a priest at the rite, reciting hymns; like a messenger, you carry the offerings of men in many places.
प्रातर्यावाणा रथ्येव वीराजेव यमा वरमा सचेथे । मेने इव तन्वा शुम्भमाने दम्पतीव क्रतुविदा जनेषु
Like heroes on a chariot, you come at dawn; like a groom choosing a bride, you unite; like one delighting in his own body, shining; like a couple wise in counsel among people.
शृङ्गेव नः प्रथमा गन्तमर्वाक्छफाविव जर्भुराणा तरोभिः । चक्रवाकेव प्रति वस्तोरुस्रार्वाञ्चा यातं रथ्येव शक्रा
Like a horn, come to us first from near; like the jaws of a restless beast, with your teeth; like the chakravāka bird at the approach of dawn, come forward like mighty ones on a chariot.
नावेव नः पारयतं युगेव नभ्येव न उपधीव प्रधीव । श्वानेव नो अरिषण्या तनूनां खृगलेव विस्रसः पातमस्मान्
Like a boat, carry us across; like a yoke, like a nave, like a support, like a prop; like a dog, protect our bodies from harm; like a hedgehog, guard us from slipping.
वातेवाजुर्या नद्येव रीतिरक्षी इव चक्षुषा यातमर्वाक् । हस्ताविव तन्वे शम्भविष्ठा पादेव नो नयतं वस्यो अच्छ
Like the wind, swift; like a river, flowing; like eyes, come near with your sight; like hands, be most beneficent to our body; like feet, lead us to wealth.
ओष्ठाविव मध्वास्ने वदन्ता स्तनाविव पिप्यतं जीवसे नः । नासेव नस्तन्वो रक्षितारा कर्णाविव सुश्रुता भूतमस्मे
Like lips, speaking sweetly with honey; like breasts, nourish us for life; like nostrils, be our protectors; like ears, be well-hearing for us.
