ऋग्वेद 1.139 (श्लोक 1) - Project अर्थ (Artha)

अस्तु श्रौषट् पुरो अग्निं धिया दध आ नु तच्छर्धो दिव्यं वृणीमह इन्द्रवायू वृणीमहे । यद्ध क्राणा विवस्वति नाभा संदायि नव्यसी । अध प्र सू न उप यन्तु धीतयो देवाँ अच्छा न धीतयः ॥

astu śrauṣaṭ puro agniṃ dhiyā dadha ā nu tacchardho divyaṃ vṛṇīmaha indravāyū vṛṇīmahe | yaddha krāṇā vivasvati nābhā saṃdāyi navyasī | adha pra sū na upa yantu dhītayo devā~ acchā na dhītayaḥ ||

May our prayers be heard, I plural ce before (me) Agni with reverence; we have recourse to his celestial might; we have recourse to Indra and to Vāyu; which doing, a new (hymn) has been addressed (by us) to the radiant navel (of the earth); and thereupon may our pious rites attain the gods; may our pious rites attain the presence of the gods.

यद्ध त्यन्मित्रावरुणावृतादध्याददाथे अनृतं स्वेन मन्युना दक्षस्य स्वेन मन्युना । युवोरित्थाधि सद्मस्वपश्याम हिरण्ययम् । धीभिश्चन मनसा स्वेभिरक्षभिः सोमस्य स्वेभिरक्षभिः ॥

yaddha tyanmitrāvaruṇāvṛtādadhyādadāthe anṛtaṃ svena manyunā dakṣasya svena manyunā | yuvoritthādhi sadmasvapaśyāma hiraṇyayam | dhībhiścana manasā svebhirakṣabhiḥ somasya svebhirakṣabhiḥ ||

Mitra and Varuṇa, bestow (upon us) abundantly that unenduring water which you obtain from the sun, through your own energy; through the inherent energy of the vigorous; may we thus behold your golden (forms) in our halls of sacrifice, (brought thither) by our sacred rites, and by our thoughts and senses (intent upon you); by our senses (intent upon offering) the Soma.

युवां स्तोमेभिर्देवयन्तो अश्विनाश्रावयन्त इव श्लोकमायवो युवां हव्याभ्यायवः । युवोर्विश्वा अधि श्रियः पृक्षश्च विश्ववेदसा । प्रुषायन्ते वां पवयो हिरण्यये रथे दस्रा हिरण्यये ॥

yuvāṃ stomebhirdevayanto aśvināśrāvayanta iva ślokamāyavo yuvāṃ havyābhyāyavaḥ | yuvorviśvā adhi śriyaḥ pṛkṣaśca viśvavedasā | pruṣāyante vāṃ pavayo hiraṇyaye rathe dasrā hiraṇyaye ||

Aśvins, men who desire to glorify you with (their) hymns, cause, as it were, their praises to be heard, propitiating you with oblations; for, from you, who are possessed of all opulence, (they obtain) every kind of wealth and abundant food. Dasras, the fellies (of the wheels) of your honey-laden car drop honey, (carried) in your golden (car).

अचेति दस्रा व्यु नाकमृण्वथो युञ्जते वां रथयुजो दिविष्टिष्वध्वस्मानो दिविष्टिषु । अधि वां स्थाम वन्धुरे रथे दस्रा हिरण्यये । पथेव यन्तावनुशासता रजोऽञ्जसा शासता रजः ॥

aceti dasrā vyu nākamṛṇvatho yuñjate vāṃ rathayujo diviṣṭiṣvadhvasmāno diviṣṭiṣu | adhi vāṃ sthāma vandhure rathe dasrā hiraṇyaye | patheva yantāvanuśāsatā rajo'ñjasā śāsatā rajaḥ ||

Dasras, your purpose is known; you would repair to heaven; your charioteers harness (your steeds) for your heavenward journey; the horses that injure not (the car) on your journey to heaven. We have plural ced you, Dasras, in your golden three-shafted chariot, going by an (easy) road to heaven, humiliators (of enemies), and principal regulators of the rain.

शचीभिर्नः शचीवसू दिवा नक्तं दशस्यतम् । मा वां रातिरुप दसत्कदा चनास्मद्रातिः कदा चन ॥

śacībhirnaḥ śacīvasū divā naktaṃ daśasyatam | mā vāṃ rātirupa dasatkadā canāsmadrātiḥ kadā cana ||

Enriched by holy rites, grant us, by day and night, (all good things), on account of our pious acts; never may your donations, never may our (donations), be withheld.

वृषन्निन्द्र वृषपाणास इन्दव इमे सुता अद्रिषुतास उद्भिदस्तुभ्यं सुतास उद्भिदः । ते त्वा मन्दन्तु दावने महे चित्राय राधसे । गीर्भिर्गिर्वाहः स्तवमान आ गहि सुमृऴीको न आ गहि ॥

vṛṣannindra vṛṣapāṇāsa indava ime sutā adriṣutāsa udbhidastubhyaṃ sutāsa udbhidaḥ | te tvā mandantu dāvane mahe citrāya rādhase | gīrbhirgirvāhaḥ stavamāna ā gahi sumṛḻīko na ā gahi ||

Indra, showerer (of blessings), these effused Soma, (expressed) by stones, and which have sprung (from mountain), are for your drinking; these libations have burst forth for you; may they satisfy you as an offering presented (in the hope of receiving) great and wonderful riches. Acceptor of laudations, come to us, glorified by our hymns; come to us well plural ased.

ओ षू णो अग्ने शृणुहि त्वमीऴितो देवेभ्यो ब्रवसि यज्ञियेभ्यो राजभ्यो यज्ञियेभ्यः । यद्ध त्यामङ्गिरोभ्यो धेनुं देवा अदत्तन । वि तां दुह्रे अर्यमा कर्तरी सचाँ एष तां वेद मे सचा ॥

o ṣū ṇo agne śṛṇuhi tvamīḻito devebhyo bravasi yajñiyebhyo rājabhyo yajñiyebhyaḥ | yaddha tyāmaṅgirobhyo dhenuṃ devā adattana | vi tāṃ duhre aryamā kartarī sacā~ eṣa tāṃ veda me sacā ||

Agni, listen attentively when you are praised by us, and repeat (those praises) to the gods who are entitled to worship; to the royal (deities) entitled to worship; on which accoun tthe gods gave to the Aṅgirasas the cow which Aryaman milked for (you), the maker (of all), together with the gods; that cow (the nature of which you have said), he, along with me, comprehends.

मो षु वो अस्मदभि तानि पौंस्या सना भूवन्द्युम्नानि मोत जारिषुरस्मत्पुरोत जारिषुः । यद्वश्चित्रं युगेयुगे नव्यं घोषादमर्त्यम् । अस्मासु तन्मरुतो यच्च दुष्टरं दिधृता यच्च दुष्टरम् ॥

mo ṣu vo asmadabhi tāni pauṃsyā sanā bhūvandyumnāni mota jāriṣurasmatpurota jāriṣuḥ | yadvaścitraṃ yugeyuge navyaṃ ghoṣādamartyam | asmāsu tanmaruto yacca duṣṭaraṃ didhṛtā yacca duṣṭaram ||

Never, Maruts, may your glorious energies be exerted against us; may our (riches) never diminish; never may our towns decay; and may whatever is wonderful, admirable immortal, or (whatever is recognized to be living), from its sound, that has been yours from age to age, (devolve) upon us; whatever is most difficult (of attainment) bestow upon us; whatever is most difficult (to be attained).

दध्यङ्ह मे जनुषं पूर्वो अङ्गिराः प्रियमेधः कण्वो अत्रिर्मनुर्विदुस्ते मे पूर्वे मनुर्विदुः । तेषां देवेष्वायतिरस्माकं तेषु नाभयः । तेषां पदेन मह्या नमे गिरेन्द्राग्नी आ नमे गिरा ॥

dadhyaṅha me januṣaṃ pūrvo aṅgirāḥ priyamedhaḥ kaṇvo atrirmanurviduste me pūrve manurviduḥ | teṣāṃ deveṣvāyatirasmākaṃ teṣu nābhayaḥ | teṣāṃ padena mahyā name girendrāgnī ā name girā ||

The ancient Dadhyañc, Aṅgiras, Priyamedha, Kaṇva, Atri, Manu, have known my birth; they who were of old and Manu have known (my progenitors); for of them is long life amongst the gods, and in them is our existence; for the sake of their nigh station, I adore (the gods) with praise; I worship Indra and Agni with praise.

होता यक्षद्वनिनो वन्त वार्यं बृहस्पतिर्यजति वेन उक्षभिः पुरुवारेभिरुक्षभिः । जगृभ्मा दूरआदिशं श्लोकमद्रेरध त्मना । अधारयदररिन्दानि सुक्रतुः पुरू सद्मानि सुक्रतुः ॥

hotā yakṣadvanino vanta vāryaṃ bṛhaspatiryajati vena ukṣabhiḥ puruvārebhirukṣabhiḥ | jagṛbhmā dūraādiśaṃ ślokamadreradha tmanā | adhārayadararindāni sukratuḥ purū sadmāni sukratuḥ ||

Let the invoker (of the gods) offer sacrifice, and may they, desirous of the offering, (partake of) the acceptable (libation); Bṛhaspati himself, desiring (the libation), celebrates worship with libations; with copious and excellent libations. We catch from a distant quarter the sound of the stones, whereby the performer of pious acts has of himself secured the waters (of the clouds); the performer of pious acts (has secured) many habitations.

ये देवासो दिव्येकादश स्थ पृथिव्यामध्येकादश स्थ । अप्सुक्षितो महिनैकादश स्थ ते देवासो यज्ञमिमं जुषध्वम् ॥

ye devāso divyekādaśa stha pṛthivyāmadhyekādaśa stha | apsukṣito mahinaikādaśa stha te devāso yajñamimaṃ juṣadhvam ||

Gods who are eleven in heaven; who are eleven on earth; and who are eleven dwelling with glory in mid-air; may you be plural ased with our sacrifice.
