Library·Ṛgveda Saṃhitā·6·6.53
वयम् उ त्वा पथस् पते रथं न वाजसातये । धिये पूषन्न् अयुज्महि ॥
vayam u tvā pathas pate rathaṃ na vājasātaye | dhiye pūṣann ayujmahi ||
Lord of the path, O Pusan, we have yoked and bound thee to our hymn, Even as a car, to win the prize.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
अभि नो नर्यं वसु वीरम् प्रयतदक्षिणम् । वामं गृहपतिं नय ॥
abhi no naryaṃ vasu vīram prayatadakṣiṇam | vāmaṃ gṛhapatiṃ naya ||
Bring us the wealth that men require, a manly master of a house, Free-handed with the liberal meed.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
अदित्सन्तं चिद् आघृणे पूषन् दानाय चोदय । पणेश् चिद् वि म्रदा मनः ॥
aditsantaṃ cid āghṛṇe pūṣan dānāya codaya | paṇeś cid vi mradā manaḥ ||
Even him who would not give, do thou, O glowing Pusan, urge to give, And make the niggard's soul grow soft.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
वि पथो वाजसातये चिनुहि वि मृधो जहि । साधन्ताम् उग्र नो धियः ॥
vi patho vājasātaye cinuhi vi mṛdho jahi | sādhantām ugra no dhiyaḥ ||
Clear paths that we may win the prize; scatter our enemies afar. Strong God, be all our thoughts fulfilled.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
परि तृन्धि पणीनाम् आरया हृदया कवे । अथेम् अस्मभ्यं रन्धय ॥
pari tṛndhi paṇīnām ārayā hṛdayā kave | athem asmabhyaṃ randhaya ||
Penetrate with an awl, O Sage, the hearts of avaricious churls, And make them subject to our will.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
वि पूषन्न् आरया तुद पणेर् इच्छ हृदि प्रियम् । अथेम् अस्मभ्यं रन्धय ॥
vi pūṣann ārayā tuda paṇer iccha hṛdi priyam | athem asmabhyaṃ randhaya ||
Thrust with thine awl, O Pusan: seek that which the niggard's heart holds dear, And make him subject to our will.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
आ रिख किकिरा कृणु पणीनां हृदया कवे । अथेम् अस्मभ्यं रन्धय ॥
ā rikha kikirā kṛṇu paṇīnāṃ hṛdayā kave | athem asmabhyaṃ randhaya ||
Tear up and read in pieces, Sage, the hearts of avaricious churls, And make them subject to our will.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
याम् पूषन् ब्रह्मचोदनीम् आराम् बिभर्ष्य् आघृणे । तया समस्य हृदयम् आ रिख किकिरा कृणु ॥
yām pūṣan brahmacodanīm ārām bibharṣy āghṛṇe | tayā samasya hṛdayam ā rikha kikirā kṛṇu ||
Thou, glowing Pusan, carriest an awl that urges men to prayer; Therewith do thou tear up and rend to shreds the heart of every one.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
या ते अष्ट्रा गोओपशाघृणे पशुसाधनी । तस्यास् ते सुम्नम् ईमहे ॥
yā te aṣṭrā goopaśāghṛṇe paśusādhanī | tasyās te sumnam īmahe ||
Thou bearest, glowing Lord! a goad with horny point that guides the cows Thence do we seek thy gift of bliss.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
उत नो गोषणिं धियम् अश्वसां वाजसाम् उत । नृवत् कृणुहि वीतये ॥
uta no goṣaṇiṃ dhiyam aśvasāṃ vājasām uta | nṛvat kṛṇuhi vītaye ||
And make this hymn of ours produce kine, horses, and a store of wealth For our delight and use as men.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
