[rv-4-33] • 11 श्लोकाः

प्र ऋभुभ्यो दूतमिव वाचमिष्य उपस्तिरे श्वैतरीं धेनुमीऴे । ये वातजूतास्तरणिभिरेवैः परि द्यां सद्यो अपसो बभूवुः ॥

pra ṛbhubhyo dūtamiva vācamiṣya upastire śvaitarīṃ dhenumīḻe | ye vātajūtāstaraṇibhirevaiḥ pari dyāṃ sadyo apaso babhūvuḥ ||

I send my prayer as a messenger to the ṛbhus; I solicit (of them) the cow, the yielder of the white milk, for the dilution (of the Soma libation); for they, as swift as the wind, the doers of good works, were borne quickly across the firmament by rapid steeds.

यदारमक्रन्नृभवः पितृभ्यां परिविष्टी वेषणा दंसनाभिः । आदिद्देवानामुप सख्यमायन्धीरासः पुष्टिमवहन्मनायै ॥

yadāramakrannṛbhavaḥ pitṛbhyāṃ pariviṣṭī veṣaṇā daṃsanābhiḥ | ādiddevānāmupa sakhyamāyandhīrāsaḥ puṣṭimavahanmanāyai ||

When the ṛbhus, by honouring their parents with renovated (youth), and by other works, had achieved enough, they thereupon proceeded to the society of the gods, and, considerate, they bring nourishment to the devout (worshipper).

पुनर्ये चक्रुः पितरा युवाना सना यूपेव जरणा शयाना । ते वाजो विभ्वाँ ऋभुरिन्द्रवन्तो मधुप्सरसो नोऽवन्तु यज्ञम् ॥

punarye cakruḥ pitarā yuvānā sanā yūpeva jaraṇā śayānā | te vājo vibhvā~ ṛbhurindravanto madhupsaraso no'vantu yajñam ||

May they who rendered their decrepid and dropsy parents, when, like two dry posts, again perpetually young, Vāja, Vibhavan, and Ṛbhu associated with Indra, drinkers of the Soma juice, protect our sacrifice.

यत्संवत्समृभवो गामरक्षन्यत्संवत्समृभवो मा अपिंशन् । यत्संवत्समभरन्भासो अस्यास्ताभिः शमीभिरमृतत्वमाशुः ॥

yatsaṃvatsamṛbhavo gāmarakṣanyatsaṃvatsamṛbhavo mā apiṃśan | yatsaṃvatsamabharanbhāso asyāstābhiḥ śamībhiramṛtatvamāśuḥ ||

Inasmuch as for a year the Ṛbhus preserved the (dead) cow, inasmuch as for a year they invested it with flesh, inasmuch as for a year they continued its beauty they obtained by their acts of immortality.

ज्येष्ठ आह चमसा द्वा करेति कनीयान्त्रीन्कृणवामेत्याह । कनिष्ठ आह चतुरस्करेति त्वष्ट ऋभवस्तत्पनयद्वचो वः ॥

jyeṣṭha āha camasā dvā kareti kanīyāntrīnkṛṇavāmetyāha | kaniṣṭha āha caturaskareti tvaṣṭa ṛbhavastatpanayadvaco vaḥ ||

The eldest said, let us make two ladles; the younger said, let us make three: Tvaṣṭā, Ṛbhus, has applauded your proposal.

सत्यमूचुर्नर एवा हि चक्रुरनु स्वधामृभवो जग्मुरेताम् । विभ्राजमानाँश्चमसाँ अहेवावेनत्त्वष्टा चतुरो ददृश्वान् ॥

satyamūcurnara evā hi cakruranu svadhāmṛbhavo jagmuretām | vibhrājamānā~ścamasā~ ahevāvenattvaṣṭā caturo dadṛśvān ||

The men, (the Ṛbhus), spoke the truth, for such (ladles) they made, and thereupon the Ṛbhus partook of that libation; Tvaṣṭā, beholding the four ladles, brilliant as day, was content.

द्वादश द्यून्यदगोह्यस्यातिथ्ये रणन्नृभवः ससन्तः । सुक्षेत्राकृण्वन्ननयन्त सिन्धून्धन्वातिष्ठन्नोषधीर्निम्नमापः ॥

dvādaśa dyūnyadagohyasyātithye raṇannṛbhavaḥ sasantaḥ | sukṣetrākṛṇvannanayanta sindhūndhanvātiṣṭhannoṣadhīrnimnamāpaḥ ||

When the Ṛbhus, reposing for twelve days, remained in the hospitality of the uncealable (sun) they rendered the fields fertile, they led forth the rivers, plural nts sprung upon the waste, and waters (spread over) the low (plural ces).

रथं ये चक्रुः सुवृतं नरेष्ठां ये धेनुं विश्वजुवं विश्वरूपाम् । त आ तक्षन्त्वृभवो रयिं नः स्ववसः स्वपसः सुहस्ताः ॥

rathaṃ ye cakruḥ suvṛtaṃ nareṣṭhāṃ ye dhenuṃ viśvajuvaṃ viśvarūpām | ta ā takṣantvṛbhavo rayiṃ naḥ svavasaḥ svapasaḥ suhastāḥ ||

May those Ṛbhus who constructed the firm-abiding wheel-conducting car; who formed the all-impelling multiform cow; they who are the bestowers of food, the doers of great deeds, and dexterous of hand, fabricate our riches.

अपो ह्येषामजुषन्त देवा अभि क्रत्वा मनसा दीध्यानाः । वाजो देवानामभवत्सुकर्मेन्द्रस्य ऋभुक्षा वरुणस्य विभ्वा ॥

apo hyeṣāmajuṣanta devā abhi kratvā manasā dīdhyānāḥ | vājo devānāmabhavatsukarmendrasya ṛbhukṣā varuṇasya vibhvā ||

The gods were plural ased by their works, illustrious in act and in thought; Vāja was the artificer of the gods, Ṛbhukṣin of Indra, Vibhavan of Varuṇa.

ये हरी मेधयोक्था मदन्त इन्द्राय चक्रुः सुयुजा ये अश्वा । ते रायस्पोषं द्रविणान्यस्मे धत्त ऋभवः क्षेमयन्तो न मित्रम् ॥

ye harī medhayokthā madanta indrāya cakruḥ suyujā ye aśvā | te rāyaspoṣaṃ draviṇānyasme dhatta ṛbhavaḥ kṣemayanto na mitram ||

May those Ṛbhus who gratified the horses (of Indra) by pious praise, who constructed for Indra his two docile steeds, bestow upon us satiety of riches, and wealth (of cattle), like those who devise prosperity for a friend.

इदाह्नः पीतिमुत वो मदं धुर्न ऋते श्रान्तस्य सख्याय देवाः । ते नूनमस्मे ऋभवो वसूनि तृतीये अस्मिन्त्सवने दधात ॥

idāhnaḥ pītimuta vo madaṃ dhurna ṛte śrāntasya sakhyāya devāḥ | te nūnamasme ṛbhavo vasūni tṛtīye asmintsavane dadhāta ||

The gods verily have given you the beverage at the (third sacrifice of the) day, and its exhilarqation, not through regard, but (as the gift of one) wearied out (by penance); Ṛbhus, who are so (eminent), grant us, verily, wealth at this third (diurnal) sacrifice.
