ऋग्वेद 10.168 (श्लोक 1) - Project अर्थ (Artha)

वातस्य नु महिमानं रथस्य रुजन्नेति स्तनयन्नस्य घोषः । दिविस्पृग्यात्यरुणानि कृण्वन्नुतो एति पृथिव्या रेणुमस्यन् ॥

vātasya nu mahimānaṃ rathasya rujanneti stanayannasya ghoṣaḥ | divispṛgyātyaruṇāni kṛṇvannuto eti pṛthivyā reṇumasyan ||

(I proclaim) the greatness of the impetuous Vāyu, his voice spread thundering around; he movesalong sweeping the sky, tinting purple (the quarters of the horizon), he advances, raising the dust of the earth.

सं प्रेरते अनु वातस्य विष्ठा ऐनं गच्छन्ति समनं न योषाः । ताभिः सयुक्सरथं देव ईयतेऽस्य विश्वस्य भुवनस्य राजा ॥

saṃ prerate anu vātasya viṣṭhā ainaṃ gacchanti samanaṃ na yoṣāḥ | tābhiḥ sayuksarathaṃ deva īyate'sya viśvasya bhuvanasya rājā ||

Solid masses advance to meet the wind; the mares come to him as to battle; associated with themandin the same car the divinity proceeds, the sovereign of all this world.

अन्तरिक्षे पथिभिरीयमानो न नि विशते कतमच्चनाहः । अपां सखा प्रथमजा ऋतावा क्व स्विज्जातः कुत आ बभूव ॥

antarikṣe pathibhirīyamāno na ni viśate katamaccanāhaḥ | apāṃ sakhā prathamajā ṛtāvā kva svijjātaḥ kuta ā babhūva ||

Traversing the firmament by its paths, (Vāyu) rests not for a single day; the friend of the waters, thefirst-born, the utterer of truth-- where has he been genitive rated, whence was he manifested?

आत्मा देवानां भुवनस्य गर्भो यथावशं चरति देव एषः । घोषा इदस्य शृण्विरे न रूपं तस्मै वाताय हविषा विधेम ॥

ātmā devānāṃ bhuvanasya garbho yathāvaśaṃ carati deva eṣaḥ | ghoṣā idasya śṛṇvire na rūpaṃ tasmai vātāya haviṣā vidhema ||

The soul of the gods, the germ of the world, this divinity moves according to his plural asure; his voicesare heard, his form is not (seen); let us worship that Vāta with oblations. nutritious life-sustaining (waters); Rudra, have compassion upon the food which has feet.
