Library·Ṛgveda Saṃhitā·1·1.183
तं युञ्जाथाम् मनसो यो जवीयान् त्रिवन्धुरो वृषणा यस् त्रिचक्रः । येनोपयाथः सुकृतो दुरोणं त्रिधातुना पतथो विर् न पर्णैः ॥
taṃ yuñjāthām manaso yo javīyān trivandhuro vṛṣaṇā yas tricakraḥ | yenopayāthaḥ sukṛto duroṇaṃ tridhātunā patatho vir na parṇaiḥ ||
Make ready that which passes thought in swiftness, that hath three wheels and triple seat, ye Mighty, Whereon ye seek the dwelling of the pious, whereon, threefold, ye fly like birds with pinions.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
सुवृद् रथो वर्तते यन्न् अभि क्षां यत् तिष्ठथः क्रतुमन्तानु पृक्षे । वपुर् वपुष्या सचताम् इयं गीर् दिवो दुहित्रोषसा सचेथे ॥
suvṛd ratho vartate yann abhi kṣāṃ yat tiṣṭhathaḥ kratumantānu pṛkṣe | vapur vapuṣyā sacatām iyaṃ gīr divo duhitroṣasā sacethe ||
Light rolls your easy chariot faring earthward, what time, for food, ye, full of wisdom, mount it. May this song, wondrous fair, attend your glory: ye, as ye travel, wait on Dawn Heaven's Daughter.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
आ तिष्ठतं सुवृतं यो रथो वाम् अनु व्रतानि वर्तते हविष्मान् । येन नरा नासत्येषयध्यै वर्तिर् याथस् तनयाय त्मने च ॥
ā tiṣṭhataṃ suvṛtaṃ yo ratho vām anu vratāni vartate haviṣmān | yena narā nāsatyeṣayadhyai vartir yāthas tanayāya tmane ca ||
Ascend your lightly rolling car, approaching the worshipper who turns him to his duties,-- Whereon ye come unto the house to quicken man and his offspring, O Nasatyas, Heroes.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
मा वां वृको मा वृकीर् आ दधर्षीन् मा परि वर्क्तम् उत माति धक्तम् । अयं वाम् भागो निहित इयं गीर् दस्राव् इमे वां निधयो मधूनाम् ॥
mā vāṃ vṛko mā vṛkīr ā dadharṣīn mā pari varktam uta māti dhaktam | ayaṃ vām bhāgo nihita iyaṃ gīr dasrāv ime vāṃ nidhayo madhūnām ||
Let not the wolf, let not the she-wolf harm you. Forsake me not, nor pass me by or others. Here stands your share, here is your hymn, ye Mighty: yours are these vessels, full of pleasant juices.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
युवां गोतमः पुरुमीळ्हो अत्रिर् दस्रा हवते ऽवसे हविष्मान् । दिशं न दिष्टाम् ऋजूयेव यन्ता मे हवं नासत्योप यातम् ॥
yuvāṃ gotamaḥ purumīḷho atrir dasrā havate 'vase haviṣmān | diśaṃ na diṣṭām ṛjūyeva yantā me havaṃ nāsatyopa yātam ||
Gotama, Purumilha, Atri bringing oblations all invoke you for protection. Like one who goes straight to the point directed, ye Nasatyas, to mine invocation.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
अतारिष्म तमसस् पारम् अस्य प्रति वां स्तोमो अश्विनाव् अधायि । एह यातम् पथिभिर् देवयानैर् विद्यामेषं वृजनं जीरदानुम् ॥
atāriṣma tamasas pāram asya prati vāṃ stomo aśvināv adhāyi | eha yātam pathibhir devayānair vidyāmeṣaṃ vṛjanaṃ jīradānum ||
We have passed o'er the limit of this darkness: our praise hath been bestowed on you, O Asvins. Come hitherward by paths which Gods have travelled. May we find strengthening food in full abundance.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
