Library·Ṛgveda Saṃhitā·1·1.149
महः स राय एषते पतिर् दन्न् इन इनस्य वसुनः पद आ । उप ध्रजन्तम् अद्रयो विधन्न् इत् ॥
mahaḥ sa rāya eṣate patir dann ina inasya vasunaḥ pada ā | upa dhrajantam adrayo vidhann it ||
Hither he hastens to give, Lord of great riches, King of the mighty, to the place of treasure. The pressing-stones shall serve him speeding near us.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
स यो वृषा नरां न रोदस्योः श्रवोभिर् अस्ति जीवपीतसर्गः । प्र यः सस्राणः शिश्रीत योनौ ॥
sa yo vṛṣā narāṃ na rodasyoḥ śravobhir asti jīvapītasargaḥ | pra yaḥ sasrāṇaḥ śiśrīta yonau ||
As Steer of men so Steer of earth and heaven by glory, he whose streams all life hath drunken, Who hasting forward rests upon the altar.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
आ यः पुरं नार्मिणीम् अदीदेद् अत्यः कविर् नभन्यो नार्वा । सूरो न रुरुक्वाञ् छतात्मा ॥
ā yaḥ puraṃ nārmiṇīm adīded atyaḥ kavir nabhanyo nārvā | sūro na rurukvāñ chatātmā ||
He who hath lighted up the joyous castle, wise Courser like the Steed of cloudy heaven, Bright like the Sun, with hundredfold existence.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
अभि द्विजन्मा त्री रोचनानि विश्वा रजांसि शुशुचानो अस्थात् । होता यजिष्ठो अपां सधस्थे ॥
abhi dvijanmā trī rocanāni viśvā rajāṃsi śuśucāno asthāt | hotā yajiṣṭho apāṃ sadhasthe ||
He, doubly born, hath spread in his effulgence through the three luminous realms, through all the regions, Best sacrificing Priest where waters gather.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
अयं स होता यो द्विजन्मा विश्वा दधे वार्याणि श्रवस्या । मर्तो यो अस्मै सुतुको ददाश ॥
ayaṃ sa hotā yo dvijanmā viśvā dadhe vāryāṇi śravasyā | marto yo asmai sutuko dadāśa ||
Priest doubly born, he through his love of glory hath in his keeping all things worth the choosing, The man who brings him gifts hath noble offspring.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
