राये नु यं जज्ञतू रोदसीमे राये देवी धिषणा धाति देवम् । अध वायुं नियुतः सश्चत स्वा उत श्वेतं वसुधितिं निरेके
For whom the two worlds were born for wealth, for whom the divine Dhiṣaṇā grants riches; then the teams accompany Vāyu, and the shining, wealth-bringing one is yoked.
उच्छन्नुषसः सुदिना अरिप्रा उरु ज्योतिर्विविदुर्दीध्यानाः । गव्यं चिदूर्वमुशिजो वि वव्रुस्तेषामनु प्रदिवः सस्रुरापः
The Dawns have risen, bringing fair days, revealing wide light as they shine; even the cows have spread out in the broad expanse, and the waters have flowed according to their course.
ते सत्येन मनसा दीध्यानाः स्वेन युक्तासः क्रतुना वहन्ति । इन्द्रवायू वीरवाहं रथं वामीशानयोरभि पृक्षः सचन्ते
They, shining with true intent, yoked by their own will, bear the chariot of Indra and Vāyu, full of heroes; the swift teams join together for the lords.
ईशानासो ये दधते स्वर्णो गोभिरश्वेभिर्वसुभिर्हिरण्यैः । इन्द्रवायू सूरयो विश्वमायुरर्वद्भिर्वीरैः पृतनासु सह्युः
Those lords who possess the sun, cattle, horses, riches, and gold; Indra and Vāyu, the mighty ones, conquer all life with their horses and heroes in battles.
अर्वन्तो न श्रवसो भिक्षमाणा इन्द्रवायू सुष्टुतिभिर्वसिष्ठाः । वाजयन्तः स्ववसे हुवेम यूयं पात स्वस्तिभिः सदा नः
Like swift horses seeking fame, O Indra and Vāyu, the Vasiṣṭhas praise you with fair hymns; granting strength, we call upon you for good fortune—may you always guard us with well-being.
कुविदङ्ग नमसा ये वृधासः पुरा देवा अनवद्यास आसन् । ते वायवे मनवे बाधितायावासयन्नुषसं सूर्येण
Who knows, those ancient gods, flawless and mighty, were worshipped with reverence; they made the Dawn rise for Vāyu and for Manu, who was oppressed, together with the Sun.
उशन्ता दूता न दभाय गोपा मासश्च पाथः शरदश्च पूर्वीः । इन्द्रवायू सुष्टुतिर्वामियाना मार्डीकमीट्टे सुवितं च नव्यम्
The shining messengers, undeceivable guardians, watched over the months and many seasons; O Indra and Vāyu, your praise is ever new, I seek your gracious favor and fresh prosperity.
पीवोअन्नाँ रयिवृधः सुमेधाः श्वेतः सिषक्ति नियुतामभिश्रीः । ते वायवे समनसो वि तस्थुर्विश्वेन्नरः स्वपत्यानि चक्रुः
Rich in food, wealth-increasing, wise, and shining, the glory of the teams is abundant; they, united in purpose for Vāyu, stood forth, all the men performed their lordly deeds.
यावत्तरस्तन्वो यावदोजो यावन्नरश्चक्षसा दीध्यानाः । शुचिं सोमं शुचिपा पातमस्मे इन्द्रवायू सदतं बर्हिरेदम्
As far as your bodies reach, as great as your strength, as far as your vision shines, O Indra and Vāyu, drink the pure Soma with delight; sit here on this sacred grass.
नियुवाना नियुत स्पार्हवीरा इन्द्रवायू सरथं यातमर्वाक् । इदं हि वां प्रभृतं मध्वो अग्रमध प्रीणाना वि मुमुक्तमस्मे
Yoking the splendid teams, O Indra and Vāyu, come together on one chariot; for this, your foremost portion of the sweet offering, let your favor be released to us.
या वां शतं नियुतो याः सहस्रमिन्द्रवायू विश्ववाराः सचन्ते । आभिर्यातं सुविदत्राभिरर्वाक्पातं नरा प्रतिभृतस्य मध्वः
The hundreds and thousands of your swift teams, O Indra and Vāyu, all-perfect, accompany you; with these come hither, possessing good wisdom, and drink, O heroes, of the mead brought forward.
अर्वन्तो न श्रवसो भिक्षमाणा इन्द्रवायू सुष्टुतिभिर्वसिष्ठाः । वाजयन्तः स्ववसे हुवेम यूयं पात स्वस्तिभिः सदा नः
Like eager seekers of fame, O Indra and Vāyu, the Vasiṣṭhas, with well-praised hymns, call upon you, striving for strength and your favor; may you always protect us with blessings.
आ वायो भूष शुचिपा उप नः सहस्रं ते नियुतो विश्ववार । उपो ते अन्धो मद्यमयामि यस्य देव दधिषे पूर्वपेयम्
Come, O Vāyu, delighting in the pure, to us; your thousands of teams, all-perfect, approach; here is the drink, intoxicating, which I have prepared for you, O god, the ancient draught you have accepted.
प्र सोता जीरो अध्वरेष्वस्थात्सोममिन्द्राय वायवे पिबध्यै । प्र यद्वां मध्वो अग्रियं भरन्त्यध्वर्यवो देवयन्तः शचीभिः
The swift-pouring one has taken his place at the sacrifices, to pour Soma for Indra and Vāyu to drink; when the priests, with devotion and skill, bring you the foremost draught of the mead.
प्र याभिर्यासि दाश्वांसमच्छा नियुद्भिर्वायविष्टये दुरोणे । नि नो रयिं सुभोजसं युवस्व नि वीरं गव्यमश्व्यं च राधः
With those teams by which you come to the worshipper, O Vāyu, desiring the offering in the house, grant us wealth with good portions, and bestow upon us heroic strength, cattle, and horses.
ये वायव इन्द्रमादनास आदेवासो नितोशनासो अर्यः । घ्नन्तो वृत्राणि सूरिभिः ष्याम सासह्वांसो युधा नृभिरमित्रान्
You, O Vāyu, and Indra, delighting in the Soma, are truly gods, eager for the offering, noble; slaying the foes with heroes, may we be victorious, conquering enemies in battle with men.
आ नो नियुद्भिः शतिनीभिरध्वरं सहस्रिणीभिरुप याहि यज्ञम् । वायो अस्मिन्सवने मादयस्व यूयं पात स्वस्तिभिः सदा नः
Come to our sacrifice with your hundreds and thousands of teams; O Vāyu, rejoice in this libation; may you always protect us with blessings.
शुचिं नु स्तोमं नवजातमद्येन्द्राग्नी वृत्रहणा जुषेथाम् । उभा हि वां सुहवा जोहवीमि ता वाजं सद्य उशते धेष्ठा
May you, Indra and Agni, slayers of Vṛtra, accept this pure, newly-born hymn; for I call upon you both, easy to invoke, that you may bestow strength swiftly upon the eager.
ता सानसी शवसाना हि भूतं साकंवृधा शवसा शूशुवांसा । क्षयन्तौ रायो यवसस्य भूरेः पृङ्क्तं वाजस्य स्थविरस्य घृष्वेः
For you are mighty, ever-growing together in power; abiding in the home of abundant food, grant us the ancient, glorious strength, rich in horses.
उपो ह यद्विदथं वाजिनो गुर्धीभिर्विप्राः प्रमतिमिच्छमानाः । अर्वन्तो न काष्ठां नक्षमाणा इन्द्राग्नी जोहुवतो नरस्ते
When the wise, desiring distinction, approach the assembly with hymns, like eager racers seeking the goal, O Indra and Agni, the men call upon you.
गीर्भिर्विप्रः प्रमतिमिच्छमान ईट्टे रयिं यशसं पूर्वभाजम् । इन्द्राग्नी वृत्रहणा सुवज्रा प्र नो नव्येभिस्तिरतं देष्णैः
The inspired one, seeking distinction with hymns, prays for wealth and renowned, ancient gifts; O Indra and Agni, slayers of Vṛtra, strong-armed, grant us new and excellent blessings.
सं यन्मही मिथती स्पर्धमाने तनूरुचा शूरसाता यतैते । अदेवयुं विदथे देवयुभिः सत्रा हतं सोमसुता जनेन
When the two mighty hosts, striving against each other, are set in motion by the strength of the heroic leader, then, O gods, with the worshippers in the assembly, together destroy the godless with the Soma-pressing people.
इमामु षु सोमसुतिमुप न एन्द्राग्नी सौमनसाय यातम् । नू चिद्धि परिमम्नाथे अस्माना वां शश्वद्भिर्ववृतीय वाजैः
Come, O Indra and Agni, to this Soma-pressing for our good favor; for you indeed do not neglect us, and may your steeds ever return with prizes.
सो अग्न एना नमसा समिद्धोऽच्छा मित्रं वरुणमिन्द्रं वोचेः । यत्सीमागश्चकृमा तत्सु मृळ तदर्यमादितिः शिश्रथन्तु
So, O Agni, kindled with reverence, call upon Mitra, Varuṇa, and Indra; whatever offense we have committed, forgive that; may Aryaman and Aditi release us from it.
एता अग्न आशुषाणास इष्टीर्युवोः सचाभ्यश्याम वाजान् । मेन्द्रो नो विष्णुर्मरुतः परि ख्यन्यूयं पात स्वस्तिभिः सदा नः
With these eager offerings, O Agni, may we, together with you two youths, attain the prizes; may Indra, Viṣṇu, and the Maruts surround us; may you always protect us with blessings.
इयं वामस्य मन्मन इन्द्राग्नी पूर्व्यस्तुतिः । अभ्राद्वृष्टिरिवाजनि
This is your ancient praise, O Indra and Agni, born of my thought, like rain produced from the cloud.
शृणुतं जरितुर्हवमिन्द्राग्नी वनतं गिरः । ईशाना पिप्यतं धियः
Hear the singer's call, O Indra and Agni, accept our songs; as lords, fill our thoughts with abundance.
मा पापत्वाय नो नरेन्द्राग्नी माभिशस्तये । मा नो रीरधतं निदे
Do not, O Indra and Agni, bring us to evil or to reproach; do not harm us in our dwelling.
इन्द्रे अग्ना नमो बृहत्सुवृक्तिमेरयामहे । धिया धेना अवस्यवः
To Indra and Agni, we offer great and well-spoken praise with reverence; with wisdom and the milk-giving cow, we seek your aid.
ता हि शश्वन्त ईळत इत्था विप्रास ऊतये । सबाधो वाजसातये
For indeed, the inspired ones always invoke you in this way for help, for the attainment of strength and wealth.
