Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 7.62

उत् सूर्यो बृहद् अर्चींष्य् अश्रेत् पुरु विश्वा जनिम मानुषाणाम् । समो दिवा ददृशे रोचमानः क्रत्वा कृतः सुकृतः कर्तृभिर् भूत् ॥

ut sūryo bṛhad arcīṃṣy aśret puru viśvā janima mānuṣāṇām | samo divā dadṛśe rocamānaḥ kratvā kṛtaḥ sukṛtaḥ kartṛbhir bhūt ||

Surya hath sent aloft his beams of splendour o'er all the tribes of men in countless places. Together with the heaven he shines apparent, formed by his Makers well with power and wisdom.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

स सूर्य प्रति पुरो न उद् गा एभि स्तोमेभिर् एतशेभिर् एवैः । प्र नो मित्राय वरुणाय वोचो ऽनागसो अर्यम्णे अग्नये च ॥

sa sūrya prati puro na ud gā ebhi stomebhir etaśebhir evaiḥ | pra no mitrāya varuṇāya voco 'nāgaso aryamṇe agnaye ca ||

So hast thou mounted up before us, Surya, through these our praises, with fleet dappled horses. Declare us free from all offence to Mitra, and Varuna, and Aryaman, and Agni.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

वि नः सहस्रं शुरुधो रदन्त्व् ऋतावानो वरुणो मित्रो अग्निः । यच्छन्तु चन्द्रा उपमं नो अर्कम् आ नः कामम् पूपुरन्तु स्तवानाः ॥

vi naḥ sahasraṃ śurudho radantv ṛtāvāno varuṇo mitro agniḥ | yacchantu candrā upamaṃ no arkam ā naḥ kāmam pūpurantu stavānāḥ ||

May holy Agni, Varuna, and Mitra send down their riches upon us in thousands. May they, the Bright Ones, make our praise-song perfect, and, when we laud them, grant us all our wishes.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

द्यावाभूमी अदिते त्रासीथां नो ये वां जज्ञुः सुजनिमान ऋष्वे । मा हेळे भूम वरुणस्य वायोर् मा मित्रस्य प्रियतमस्य नृणाम् ॥

dyāvābhūmī adite trāsīthāṃ no ye vāṃ jajñuḥ sujanimāna ṛṣve | mā heḷe bhūma varuṇasya vāyor mā mitrasya priyatamasya nṛṇām ||

O undivided Heaven and Earth, preserve us, us, Lofty Ones! your nobIy-born descendants. Let us not anger Varuna, nor Vayu, nor him, the dearest Friend of mortals, Mitra.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

प्र बाहवा सिसृतं जीवसे न आ नो गव्यूतिम् उक्षतं घृतेन । आ नो जने श्रवयतं युवाना श्रुतम् मे मित्रावरुणा हवेमा ॥

pra bāhavā sisṛtaṃ jīvase na ā no gavyūtim ukṣataṃ ghṛtena | ā no jane śravayataṃ yuvānā śrutam me mitrāvaruṇā havemā ||

Stretch forth your arms and let our lives be lengthened: with fatness dew the pastures of our cattle. Ye Youthful, make us famed among the people: hear, Mitra-Varuna, these mine invocations.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

नू मित्रो वरुणो अर्यमा नस् त्मने तोकाय वरिवो दधन्तु । सुगा नो विश्वा सुपथानि सन्तु यूयम् पात स्वस्तिभिः सदा नः ॥

nū mitro varuṇo aryamā nas tmane tokāya varivo dadhantu | sugā no viśvā supathāni santu yūyam pāta svastibhiḥ sadā naḥ ||

Now Mitra, Varuna, Aryaman vouchsafe us freedom and room, for us and for our children. May we find paths all fair and good to travel. Preserve us evermore, ye Gods, with blessings.
