Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 5.58

तम् उ नूनं तविषीमन्तम् एषां स्तुषे गणम् मारुतं नव्यसीनाम् । य आश्वश्वा अमवद् वहन्त उतेशिरे अमृतस्य स्वराजः ॥

tam u nūnaṃ taviṣīmantam eṣāṃ stuṣe gaṇam mārutaṃ navyasīnām | ya āśvaśvā amavad vahanta uteśire amṛtasya svarājaḥ ||

Now do I glorify their mighty cohort, the company of these the youthful Maruts, Who ride impetuous on with rapid horses, and radiant in themselves, are Lords of Amrta.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

त्वेषं गणं तवसं खादिहस्तं धुनिव्रतम् मायिनं दातिवारम् । मयोभुवो ये अमिता महित्वा वन्दस्व विप्र तुविराधसो नॄन् ॥

tveṣaṃ gaṇaṃ tavasaṃ khādihastaṃ dhunivratam māyinaṃ dātivāram | mayobhuvo ye amitā mahitvā vandasva vipra tuvirādhaso nṝn ||

The mighty glittering band, arm-bound with bracelets, givers of bliss, unmeasured in their greatness, With magical powers, bountiful, ever-roaring,-these, liberal Heroes, venerate thou singer.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

आ वो यन्तूदवाहासो अद्य वृष्टिं ये विश्वे मरुतो जुनन्ति । अयं यो अग्निर् मरुतः समिद्ध एतं जुषध्वं कवयो युवानः ॥

ā vo yantūdavāhāso adya vṛṣṭiṃ ye viśve maruto junanti | ayaṃ yo agnir marutaḥ samiddha etaṃ juṣadhvaṃ kavayo yuvānaḥ ||

This day may all your water-bringers, Maruts, they who impel the falling rain, approach us. This fire, O Maruts, hath been duly kindled; let it find favour with you, youthful Sages.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

यूयं राजानम् इर्यं जनाय विभ्वतष्टं जनयथा यजत्राः । युष्मद् एति मुष्टिहा बाहुजूतो युष्मत् सदश्वो मरुतः सुवीरः ॥

yūyaṃ rājānam iryaṃ janāya vibhvataṣṭaṃ janayathā yajatrāḥ | yuṣmad eti muṣṭihā bāhujūto yuṣmat sadaśvo marutaḥ suvīraḥ ||

Ye raise up for the folk an active ruler whom, Holy Ones! a Master's hand hath fashioned. Ye send the fighter hand to hand, armmighty, and the brave hero, Maruts with good horses.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

अरा इवेद् अचरमा अहेव प्र-प्र जायन्ते अकवा महोभिः । पृश्नेः पुत्रा उपमासो रभिष्ठाः स्वया मत्या मरुतः सम् मिमिक्षुः ॥

arā ived acaramā aheva pra-pra jāyante akavā mahobhiḥ | pṛśneḥ putrā upamāso rabhiṣṭhāḥ svayā matyā marutaḥ sam mimikṣuḥ ||

They spring forth more and more, strong in their glories, like days, like spokes where none are last in order. Highest and mightiest are the Sons of Prsni. Firm to their own intention cling the Maruts.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

यत् प्रायासिष्ट पृषतीभिर् अश्वैर् वीळुपविभिर् मरुतो रथेभिः । क्षोदन्त आपो रिणते वनान्य् अवोस्रियो वृषभः क्रन्दतु द्यौः ॥

yat prāyāsiṣṭa pṛṣatībhir aśvair vīḷupavibhir maruto rathebhiḥ | kṣodanta āpo riṇate vanāny avosriyo vṛṣabhaḥ krandatu dyauḥ ||

When ye have hastened on with spotted coursers, O Maruts, on your cars with strong-wrought fellies, The waters are disturbed, the woods are shattered. Let Dyaus the Red Steer send his thunder downward.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

प्रथिष्ट यामन् पृथिवी चिद् एषाम् भर्तेव गर्भं स्वम् इच् छवो धुः । वातान् ह्य् अश्वान् धुर्य् आयुयुज्रे वर्षं स्वेदं चक्रिरे रुद्रियासः ॥

prathiṣṭa yāman pṛthivī cid eṣām bharteva garbhaṃ svam ic chavo dhuḥ | vātān hy aśvān dhury āyuyujre varṣaṃ svedaṃ cakrire rudriyāsaḥ ||

Even Earth hath spread herself wide at their coming, and they as husbands have with power impregned her. They to the pole have yoked the winds for coursers: their sweat have they made rain, these Sons of Rudra.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

हये नरो मरुतो मृळता नस् तुवीमघासो अमृता ऋतज्ञाः । सत्यश्रुतः कवयो युवानो बृहद्गिरयो बृहद् उक्षमाणाः ॥

haye naro maruto mṛḷatā nas tuvīmaghāso amṛtā ṛtajñāḥ | satyaśrutaḥ kavayo yuvāno bṛhadgirayo bṛhad ukṣamāṇāḥ ||

Ho! Maruts, Heroes, skilled in Law, immortal, be gracious unto us, ye rich in treasures, Ye hearers of the truth, ye sage and youthful, grown mighty, dwelling on the lofty mountains.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
