Library·Ṛgveda Saṃhitā·1·1.109
वि ह्य् अख्यम् मनसा वस्य इच्छन्न् इन्द्राग्नी ज्ञास उत वा सजातान् । नान्या युवत् प्रमतिर् अस्ति मह्यं स वां धियं वाजयन्तीम् अतक्षम् ॥
vi hy akhyam manasā vasya icchann indrāgnī jñāsa uta vā sajātān | nānyā yuvat pramatir asti mahyaṃ sa vāṃ dhiyaṃ vājayantīm atakṣam ||
Longing for weal I looked around, in spirit, for kinsmen, Indra-Agni, or for brothers. No providence but yours alone is with me so have I wrought for you this hymn for succour.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
अश्रवं हि भूरिदावत्तरा वां विजामातुर् उत वा घा स्यालात् । अथा सोमस्य प्रयती युवभ्याम् इन्द्राग्नी स्तोमं जनयामि नव्यम् ॥
aśravaṃ hi bhūridāvattarā vāṃ vijāmātur uta vā ghā syālāt | athā somasya prayatī yuvabhyām indrāgnī stomaṃ janayāmi navyam ||
For I have heard that ye give wealth more freely than worthless son-in-law or spouse's brother. So offering to you this draught of Soma, I make you this new hymn, Indra and Agni,
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
मा च्छेद्म रश्मींर् इति नाधमानाः पितॄणां शक्तीर् अनुयच्छमानाः । इन्द्राग्निभ्यां कं वृषणो मदन्ति ता ह्य् अद्री धिषणाया उपस्थे ॥
mā cchedma raśmīṃr iti nādhamānāḥ pitṝṇāṃ śaktīr anuyacchamānāḥ | indrāgnibhyāṃ kaṃ vṛṣaṇo madanti tā hy adrī dhiṣaṇāyā upasthe ||
Let us not break the cords: with this petition we strive to gain the powers of our forefathers. For Indra-Agni the strong drops are joyful, for here in the bowl's lap are both the press-stones.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
युवाभ्यां देवी धिषणा मदायेन्द्राग्नी सोमम् उशती सुनोति । ताव् अश्विना भद्रहस्ता सुपाणी आ धावतम् मधुना पृङ्क्तम् अप्सु ॥
yuvābhyāṃ devī dhiṣaṇā madāyendrāgnī somam uśatī sunoti | tāv aśvinā bhadrahastā supāṇī ā dhāvatam madhunā pṛṅktam apsu ||
For you the bowl divine, Indra and Agni, presses the Soma gladly to delight you. With hands auspicious and fair arms, ye Asvins, haste, sprinkle it with sweetness in the waters.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
युवाम् इन्द्राग्नी वसुनो विभागे तवस्तमा शुश्रव वृत्रहत्ये । ताव् आसद्या बर्हिषि यज्ञे अस्मिन् प्र चर्षणी मादयेथां सुतस्य ॥
yuvām indrāgnī vasuno vibhāge tavastamā śuśrava vṛtrahatye | tāv āsadyā barhiṣi yajñe asmin pra carṣaṇī mādayethāṃ sutasya ||
You, I have heard, were mightiest, Indra-Agni, when Vrtra fell and when the spoil was parted. Sit at this sacrifice, ye ever active, on the strewn grass, and with the juice delight you.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
प्र चर्षणिभ्यः पृतनाहवेषु प्र पृथिव्या रिरिचाथे दिवश् च । प्र सिन्धुभ्यः प्र गिरिभ्यो महित्वा प्रेन्द्राग्नी विश्वा भुवनात्य् अन्या ॥
pra carṣaṇibhyaḥ pṛtanāhaveṣu pra pṛthivyā riricāthe divaś ca | pra sindhubhyaḥ pra giribhyo mahitvā prendrāgnī viśvā bhuvanāty anyā ||
Surpassing all men where they shout for battle, ye Twain exceed the earth and heaven in greatness. Greater are ye than rivers and than mountains, O Indra-Agni, and all things beside them.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
आ भरतं शिक्षतं वज्रबाहू अस्मां इन्द्राग्नी अवतं शचीभिः । इमे नु ते रश्मयः सूर्यस्य येभिः सपित्वम् पितरो न आसन् ॥
ā bharataṃ śikṣataṃ vajrabāhū asmāṃ indrāgnī avataṃ śacībhiḥ | ime nu te raśmayaḥ sūryasya yebhiḥ sapitvam pitaro na āsan ||
Bring wealth and give it, ye whose arms wield thunder: Indra and Agni, with your powers protect us. Now of a truth these be the very sunbeams wherewith our fathers were of old united.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
पुरन्दरा शिक्षतं वज्रहस्तास्मां इन्द्राग्नी अवतम् भरेषु । तन् नो मित्रो वरुणो मामहन्ताम् अदितिः सिन्धुः पृथिवी उत द्यौः ॥
purandarā śikṣataṃ vajrahastāsmāṃ indrāgnī avatam bhareṣu | tan no mitro varuṇo māmahantām aditiḥ sindhuḥ pṛthivī uta dyauḥ ||
Give, ye who shatter forts, whose hands wield thunder: Indra and Agni, save us in our battles. This prayer of ours may Varuna grant, and Mitra, and Aditi and Sindhu, Earth and Heaven.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
