शंसा मित्रस्य वरुणस्य धाम शुष्मो रोदसी बद्बधे महित्वा । अयन्मासा अयज्वनामवीराः प्र यज्ञमन्मा वृजनं तिराते
I praise the domain of Mitra and Varuna; their might binds the two worlds in greatness. The months pass by for those without sacrifice or offspring, but our hymn and offering cross over to you.
अमूरा विश्वा वृषणाविमा वां न यासु चित्रं ददृशे न यक्षम् । द्रुहः सचन्ते अनृता जनानां न वां निण्यान्यचिते अभूवन्
All your mighty deeds are unfailing; in them, nothing strange or wondrous is seen, nor any mystery. Deceit clings to the unrighteous among men, but your hidden things are not found in the unhonored.
समु वां यज्ञं महयं नमोभिर्हुवे वां मित्रावरुणा सबाधः । प्र वां मन्मान्यृचसे नवानि कृतानि ब्रह्म जुजुषन्निमानि
With reverence I magnify your sacrifice, O Mitra and Varuna, and call upon you without hindrance. I send forth new hymns to you, and these prayers, composed, are gladly received.
इयं देव पुरोहितिर्युवभ्यां यज्ञेषु मित्रावरुणावकारि । विश्वानि दुर्गा पिपृतं तिरो नो यूयं पात स्वस्तिभिः सदा नः
This divine priest has been appointed for you two, O Mitra and Varuna, in sacrifices; protect us from all hardships, remove them from us, and always guard us with blessings.
उत्सूर्यो बृहदर्चींष्यश्रेत्पुरु विश्वा जनिम मानुषाणाम् । समो दिवा ददृशे रोचमानः क्रत्वा कृतः सुकृतः कर्तृभिर्भूत्
The Sun rises, shining with great rays, and surveys all the births of mankind; he appears equally by day, radiant, made by skill, created by the doers of good.
स सूर्य प्रति पुरो न उद्गा एभि स्तोमेभिरेतशेभिरेवैः । प्र नो मित्राय वरुणाय वोचोऽनागसो अर्यम्णे अग्नये च
That Sun rises before us, with these praises, with these hymns and songs; let us speak forth to Mitra, Varuna, Aryaman, and Agni, for our innocence.
वि नः सहस्रं शुरुधो रदन्त्वृतावानो वरुणो मित्रो अग्निः । यच्छन्तु चन्द्रा उपमं नो अर्कमा नः कामं पूपुरन्तु स्तवानाः
May Varuna, Mitra, and Agni, the righteous ones, grant us a thousand gifts; may the shining ones bestow upon us the highest praise, and fulfill our desire with their hymns.
द्यावाभूमी अदिते त्रासीथां नो ये वां जज्ञुः सुजनिमान ऋष्वे । मा हेळे भूम वरुणस्य वायोर्मा मित्रस्य प्रियतमस्य नृणाम्
O Heaven and Earth, O Aditi, protect us, you who gave birth to you, with noble origin; let us not suffer the anger of Varuna or the wind, nor lose the favor of Mitra, most beloved among men.
प्र बाहवा सिसृतं जीवसे न आ नो गव्यूतिमुक्षतं घृतेन । आ नो जने श्रवयतं युवाना श्रुतं मे मित्रावरुणा हवेमा
Stretch forth your arms for our life, release for us the pasture with ghee; make us renowned among people, O youthful ones, hear me, Mitra and Varuna, I call upon you.
नू मित्रो वरुणो अर्यमा नस्त्मने तोकाय वरिवो दधन्तु । सुगा नो विश्वा सुपथानि सन्तु यूयं पात स्वस्तिभिः सदा नः
Now may Mitra, Varuna, and Aryaman grant us space for ourselves and our children; may all paths be easy and good for us, and may you always protect us with blessings.
उद्वेति सुभगो विश्वचक्षाः साधारणः सूर्यो मानुषाणाम् । चक्षुर्मित्रस्य वरुणस्य देवश्चर्मेव यः समविव्यक्तमांसि
The fortunate, all-seeing Sun rises, common to all mankind; he is the eye of Mitra and Varuna, the god, who, like a skin, reveals the thoughts within.
उद्वेति प्रसवीता जनानां महान्केतुरर्णवः सूर्यस्य । समानं चक्रं पर्याविवृत्सन्यदेतशो वहति धूर्षु युक्तः
He rises, the creator of people, the great banner of the Sun, the ocean; the same wheel revolves, carried by the spokes, as the rays bear it, harnessed to the yoke.
विभ्राजमान उषसामुपस्थाद्रेभैरुदेत्यनुमद्यमानः । एष मे देवः सविता चच्छन्द यः समानं न प्रमिनाति धाम
Radiant, he rises from the place of the dawns, accompanied by the shining ones, praised by all; this god Savitar has set in order for me, he who does not neglect the appointed path, like one who does not forsake his shared dwelling.
दिवो रुक्म उरुचक्षा उदेति दूरेअर्थस्तरणिर्भ्राजमानः । नूनं जनाः सूर्येण प्रसूता अयन्नर्थानि कृणवन्नपांसि
With golden brilliance, far-seeing, he rises from the sky, shining, traversing distant aims; now people, born with the sun, move about, pursue their tasks, and perform their works.
यत्रा चक्रुरमृता गातुमस्मै श्येनो न दीयन्नन्वेति पाथः । प्रति वां सूर उदिते विधेम नमोभिर्मित्रावरुणोत हव्यैः
Where the immortals have made a path for him, like an eagle flying swiftly, he follows the course; at your rising, O Sun, we offer worship to you both, Mitra and Varuna, with reverence and offerings.
नू मित्रो वरुणो अर्यमा नस्त्मने तोकाय वरिवो दधन्तु । सुगा नो विश्वा सुपथानि सन्तु यूयं पात स्वस्तिभिः सदा नः
Now may Mitra, Varuna, and Aryaman grant us wide space for ourselves and our children; may all our paths be easy and good; may you always protect us with well-being.
दिवि क्षयन्ता रजसः पृथिव्यां प्र वां घृतस्य निर्णिजो ददीरन् । हव्यं नो मित्रो अर्यमा सुजातो राजा सुक्षत्रो वरुणो जुषन्त
Dwelling in the sky, in the expanse of the atmosphere, may streams of clarified butter flow forth for you; may Mitra, Aryaman, noble-born king, and Varuna of good rule, accept our offering.
आ राजाना मह ऋतस्य गोपा सिन्धुपती क्षत्रिया यातमर्वाक् । इळां नो मित्रावरुणोत वृष्टिमव दिव इन्वतं जीरदानू
O royal guardians of truth, lords of the rivers, rulers, come near; grant us, Mitra and Varuna, nourishment and rain from the sky, you who bestow long life.
मित्रस्तन्नो वरुणो देवो अर्यः प्र साधिष्ठेभिः पथिभिर्नयन्तु । ब्रवद्यथा न आदरिः सुदास इषा मदेम सह देवगोपाः
May Mitra, Varuna, and the god Aryaman lead us on the most prosperous paths; may he declare, 'Let Sudas, protected by the gods, prosper with abundance.'
यो वां गर्तं मनसा तक्षदेतमूर्ध्वां धीतिं कृणवद्धारयच्च । उक्षेथां मित्रावरुणा घृतेन ता राजाना सुक्षितीस्तर्पयेथाम्
He who fashioned this pit with his mind, who made and upheld the lofty intention—may you, Mitra and Varuna, pour forth with ghee; may you, O kings, satisfy the well-settled ones.
एष स्तोमो वरुण मित्र तुभ्यं सोमः शुक्रो न वायवेऽयामि । अविष्टं धियो जिगृतं पुरंधीर्यूयं पात स्वस्तिभिः सदा नः
This praise, O Varuna and Mitra, is for you; I bring the bright Soma as to Vayu; inspire our thoughts, accept our prayers, and always protect us with well-being.
प्रति वां सूर उदिते सूक्तैर्मित्रं हुवे वरुणं पूतदक्षम् । ययोरसुर्यमक्षितं ज्येष्ठं विश्वस्य यामन्नाचिता जिगत्नु
At your rising, O Sun, with hymns I call upon Mitra and Varuna, pure in skill, whose lordship is unshaken and supreme, who move in the path that none can obstruct.
ता हि देवानामसुरा तावर्या ता नः क्षितीः करतमूर्जयन्तीः । अश्याम मित्रावरुणा वयं वां द्यावा च यत्र पीपयन्नहा च
For they are the lords among the gods, they are the mighty ones; may they grant us thriving lands; may we, Mitra and Varuna, dwell where the heavens and days bring fullness.
ता भूरिपाशावनृतस्य सेतू दुरत्येतू रिपवे मर्त्याय । ऋतस्य मित्रावरुणा पथा वामपो न नावा दुरिता तरेम
They, with many snares, are the guardians against falsehood, difficult to overcome for the hostile mortal; O Mitra and Varuna, by the path of truth, like a boat over waters, may we cross over all misfortune.
आ नो मित्रावरुणा हव्यजुष्टिं घृतैर्गव्यूतिमुक्षतमिळाभिः । प्रति वामत्र वरमा जनाय पृणीतमुद्नो दिव्यस्य चारोः
O Mitra and Varuna, accept our offering, let streams of ghee and abundance of milk flow; here, grant the best to your worshipper, and fill us from the heavenly source.
एष स्तोमो वरुण मित्र तुभ्यं सोमः शुक्रो न वायवेऽयामि । अविष्टं धियो जिगृतं पुरंधीर्यूयं पात स्वस्तिभिः सदा नः
This praise, O Varuna and Mitra, is for you; I bring the bright Soma as to Vayu; inspire our thoughts, accept our prayers, and always protect us with well-being.
प्र मित्रयोर्वरुणयो स्तोमो न एतु शूष्यः । नमस्वान्तुविजातयोः
Let this praise go forth to Mitra and Varuna, strong and worthy; let us bow to the two, born of the same origin.
या धारयन्त देवाः सुदक्षा दक्षपितरा । असुर्याय प्रमहसा
Those whom the gods, skilled in action, sustain—those fathers of skill, for the greatness of lordship.
ता न स्तिपा तनूपा वरुण जरितॄणाम् । मित्र साधयतं धियः
May those, the guardians of the body, Varuna, the protector of singers, and Mitra, accomplish our thoughts.
यदद्य सूर उदितेऽनागा मित्रो अर्यमा । सुवाति सविता भगः
When today, at sunrise, Mitra, Aryaman, Savitar, and Bhaga, free from guilt, bring prosperity.
