इमां वां मित्रावरुणा सुवृक्तिमिषं न कृण्वे असुरा नवीयः । इनो वामन्यः पदवीरदब्धो जनं च मित्रो यतति ब्रुवाणः
To you, Mitra and Varuṇa, I compose this well-praised hymn, like nourishment, O mighty ones, anew. Your path, unerring, is to be followed; Mitra strives for the people, speaking as a friend.
आ वातस्य ध्रजतो रन्त इत्या अपीपयन्त धेनवो न सूदाः । महो दिवः सदने जायमानोऽचिक्रदद्वृषभः सस्मिन्नूधन्
They delight in the rushing wind as it moves, like cows eager for the milking. Born in the seat of the great sky, the bull has bellowed at that udder.
गिरा य एता युनजद्धरी त इन्द्र प्रिया सुरथा शूर धायू । प्र यो मन्युं रिरिक्षतो मिनात्या सुक्रतुमर्यमणं ववृत्याम्
With speech, O Indra, who yokes these two dear, swift, and beloved bays, O hero, O holder of the chariot, who restrains the wrath of one seeking to harm, may we obtain the favor of Aryaman, the wise.
यजन्ते अस्य सख्यं वयश्च नमस्विनः स्व ऋतस्य धामन् । वि पृक्षो बाबधे नृभि स्तवान इदं नमो रुद्राय प्रेष्ठम्
They worship his friendship, and we, the reverent, seek the domain of truth; he has scattered the foes for the praising men—this homage is offered to Rudra, the most excellent.
आ यत्साकं यशसो वावशानाः सरस्वती सप्तथी सिन्धुमाता । याः सुष्वयन्त सुदुघाः सुधारा अभि स्वेन पयसा पीप्यानाः
When, together, the Sarasvati, the seventh, mother of rivers, full of glory, who are easy to approach, rich in milk and flowing with sweet streams, swell with their own waters.
उत त्ये नो मरुतो मन्दसाना धियं तोकं च वाजिनोऽवन्तु । मा नः परि ख्यदक्षरा चरन्त्यवीवृधन्युज्यं ते रयिं नः
And may those Maruts, delighting, protect our thought and offspring, O strong ones; let not the unsteady, wandering ones harm us—may your yoked wealth ever increase for us.
प्र वो महीमरमतिं कृणुध्वं प्र पूषणं विदथ्यं न वीरम् । भगं धियोऽवितारं नो अस्याः सातौ वाजं रातिषाचं पुरंधिम्
Make for yourselves great delight; call upon Pūṣan, the heroic one of the assembly; may Bhaga, the protector of our thoughts, grant us success in this contest, wealth, and generous bounty.
अच्छायं वो मरुतः श्लोक एत्वच्छा विष्णुं निषिक्तपामवोभिः । उत प्रजायै गृणते वयो धुर्यूयं पात स्वस्तिभिः सदा नः
To you, Maruts, this praise is addressed; to Viṣṇu, the showerer, with your help; and for offspring, for the singer who seeks strength—may you always guard us with well-being.
आ वो वाहिष्ठो वहतु स्तवध्यै रथो वाजा ऋभुक्षणो अमृक्तः । अभि त्रिपृष्ठैः सवनेषु सोमैर्मदे सुशिप्रा महभिः पृणध्वम्
Let the swiftest chariot, unsoiled, carry you here for praise, O givers of strength, O Ṛbhus; with triple-backed Soma at the pressings, rejoice, O fair-bearded ones, with great powers.
यूयं ह रत्नं मघवत्सु धत्थ स्वर्दृश ऋभुक्षणो अमृक्तम् । सं यज्ञेषु स्वधावन्तः पिबध्वं वि नो राधांसि मतिभिर्दयध्वम्
You indeed bestow treasure upon the generous, O Ṛbhus, O givers of strength, unsoiled; come, drink at the sacrifices, full of vigor, and grant us riches with your thoughts.
उवोचिथ हि मघवन्देष्णं महो अर्भस्य वसुनो विभागे । उभा ते पूर्णा वसुना गभस्ती न सूनृता नि यमते वसव्या
For you, O generous one, have spoken the desired word at the division of the great wealth; both your hands are full of riches—right speech does not restrain your generosity.
त्वमिन्द्र स्वयशा ऋभुक्षा वाजो न साधुरस्तमेष्यृक्वा । वयं नु ते दाश्वांसः स्याम ब्रह्म कृण्वन्तो हरिवो वसिष्ठाः
You, O Indra, famed for your own glory, or you, O Ṛbhus, like a good steed, will not go to darkness; may we, your worshippers, be yours, O Vasiṣṭhas, making prayer, O golden-haired one.
सनितासि प्रवतो दाशुषे चिद्याभिर्विवेषो हर्यश्व धीभिः । ववन्मा नु ते युज्याभिरूती कदा न इन्द्र राय आ दशस्येः
You are the bestower, even to the one who serves, O Haryaśva, you enter with your powers; may your helpful aids come to us—when, O Indra, will you make us enjoy your wealth?
वासयसीव वेधसस्त्वं नः कदा न इन्द्र वचसो बुबोधः । अस्तं तात्या धिया रयिं सुवीरं पृक्षो नो अर्वा न्युहीत वाजी
Like a wise friend, you clothe us, O Indra—when will you heed our words? With thought, you bring wealth and strong sons; may the strong one bring our herds near.
अभि यं देवी निरृतिश्चिदीशे नक्षन्त इन्द्रं शरदः सुपृक्षः । उप त्रिबन्धुर्जरदष्टिमेत्यस्ववेशं यं कृणवन्त मर्ताः
Even the goddess Nirṛti rules over him whom the well-yoked autumns do not mark, O Indra; the three-banded, old-toothed one approaches him, whom mortals make without a dwelling.
आ नो राधांसि सवित स्तवध्या आ रायो यन्तु पर्वतस्य रातौ । सदा नो दिव्यः पायुः सिषक्तु यूयं पात स्वस्तिभिः सदा नः
May Savitar bring us riches for praise; may wealth come to us at the mountain's bounty; may the divine guardian always protect us—may you always guard us with well-being.
उदु ष्य देवः सविता ययाम हिरण्ययीममतिं यामशिश्रेत् । नूनं भगो हव्यो मानुषेभिर्वि यो रत्ना पुरूवसुर्दधाति
The god Savitar has risen, let us go forth; let us seek the golden-minded one who brings prosperity; now Bhaga, worthy of invocation among men, who bestows treasures, is to be honored.
उदु तिष्ठ सवितः श्रुध्यस्य हिरण्यपाणे प्रभृतावृतस्य । व्युर्वीं पृथ्वीममतिं सृजान आ नृभ्यो मर्तभोजनं सुवानः
Rise up, O Savitar, hear our call, O golden-handed, at the gift-bestowing; spreading wide earth and sky, send forth prosperity, bringing to men the food of mortals.
अपि ष्टुतः सविता देवो अस्तु यमा चिद्विश्वे वसवो गृणन्ति । स न स्तोमान्नमस्यश्चनो धाद्विश्वेभिः पातु पायुभिर्नि सूरीन्
May the god Savitar, praised, be present, whom even the Vasus, all together, praise; may he grant us our hymns and reverence, may he protect our leaders with all the guardians.
अभि यं देव्यदितिर्गृणाति सवं देवस्य सवितुर्जुषाणा । अभि सम्राजो वरुणो गृणन्त्यभि मित्रासो अर्यमा सजोषाः
Whom goddess Aditi praises, delighting in the might of god Savitar; whom king Varuṇa praises, and Mitra and Aryaman together.
अभि ये मिथो वनुषः सपन्ते रातिं दिवो रातिषाचः पृथिव्याः । अहिर्बुध्न्य उत नः शृणोतु वरूत्र्येकधेनुभिर्नि पातु
Those among men who contend with one another for gifts—may the givers of heaven and earth grant them; may Ahirbudhnya also hear us, and may Varūtrī protect us with her single cow.
अनु तन्नो जास्पतिर्मंसीष्ट रत्नं देवस्य सवितुरियानः । भगमुग्रोऽवसे जोहवीति भगमनुग्रो अध याति रत्नम्
May the lord of the household consider us, as he brings the precious treasure of the divine Savitar; the mighty Bhaga is invoked for help, and the gracious Bhaga comes with the treasure.
शं नो भवन्तु वाजिनो हवेषु देवताता मितद्रवः स्वर्काः । जम्भयन्तोऽहिं वृकं रक्षांसि सनेम्यस्मद्युयवन्नमीवाः
May the swift ones, devoted to the gods, bring us well-being in our invocations; may they, shining with their own light, drive away the serpent, the wolf, and the demons, and keep all misfortune far from us.
वाजेवाजेऽवत वाजिनो नो धनेषु विप्रा अमृता ऋतज्ञाः । अस्य मध्वः पिबत मादयध्वं तृप्ता यात पथिभिर्देवयानैः
In every contest, may the swift ones protect us; in wealth, may the immortal sages, knowers of truth, guard us. Drink of this honey, rejoice, and, satisfied, proceed on the paths of the gods.
ऊर्ध्वो अग्निः सुमतिं वस्वो अश्रेत्प्रतीची जूर्णिर्देवतातिमेति । भेजाते अद्री रथ्येव पन्थामृतं होता न इषितो यजाति
Agni, upright, has reached the good will of the wealthy; the flame, turned toward us, advances to the divine assembly. The stones have split the path for the chariot, and the immortal Hotar, impelled, offers the sacrifice.
प्र वावृजे सुप्रया बर्हिरेषामा विश्पतीव बीरिट इयाते । विशामक्तोरुषसः पूर्वहूतौ वायुः पूषा स्वस्तये नियुत्वान्
The well-yoked one has gone forth to their sacred grass; like a lord of the people, he moves among them. For the good of the people, at the first summons of the dawns, Vāyu and Pūṣan, with their teams, come for our welfare.
ज्मया अत्र वसवो रन्त देवा उरावन्तरिक्षे मर्जयन्त शुभ्राः । अर्वाक्पथ उरुज्रयः कृणुध्वं श्रोता दूतस्य जग्मुषो नो अस्य
Here, with their offspring, the radiant gods rejoice; in the wide midspace, the shining ones purify themselves. Make a broad path for us, you who have wide dwellings; listen to the messenger who has come to you.
ते हि यज्ञेषु यज्ञियास ऊमाः सधस्थं विश्वे अभि सन्ति देवाः । ताँ अध्वर उशतो यक्ष्यग्ने श्रुष्टी भगं नासत्या पुरंधिम्
For in the sacrifices, these are the ones worthy of sacrifice; all the gods are present at the seat. To them, O Agni, offer the shining oblation at the ritual—Bhaga, the Aśvins, and the bountiful one.
आग्ने गिरो दिव आ पृथिव्या मित्रं वह वरुणमिन्द्रमग्निम् । आर्यमणमदितिं विष्णुमेषां सरस्वती मरुतो मादयन्ताम्
Agni, carry our songs from heaven and earth—bring Mitra, Varuṇa, Indra, and Agni; bring Aryaman, Aditi, Viṣṇu, Sarasvatī, and may the Maruts rejoice in these offerings.
ररे हव्यं मतिभिर्यज्ञियानां नक्षत्कामं मर्त्यानामसिन्वन् । धाता रयिमविदस्यं सदासां सक्षीमहि युज्येभिर्नु देवैः
He has brought the offering with the thoughts of those worthy of sacrifice, fulfilling the desire of mortals. May the Giver grant us wealth that cannot be lost, and may we share in it with the gods who are to be yoked.
