Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 7.64

दिवि क्षयन्ता रजसः पृथिव्याम् प्र वां घृतस्य निर्णिजो ददीरन् । हव्यं नो मित्रो अर्यमा सुजातो राजा सुक्षत्रो वरुणो जुषन्त ॥

divi kṣayantā rajasaḥ pṛthivyām pra vāṃ ghṛtasya nirṇijo dadīran | havyaṃ no mitro aryamā sujāto rājā sukṣatro varuṇo juṣanta ||

Ye Twain who rule, in heaven and earth, the region, clothed be your clouds in robes of oil and fatness. May the imperial Varuna, and Mitra, and high-born Aryaman accept our presents.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

आ राजाना मह ऋतस्य गोपा सिन्धुपती क्षत्रिया यातम् अर्वाक् । इळां नो मित्रावरुणोत वृष्टिम् अव दिव इन्वतं जीरदानू ॥

ā rājānā maha ṛtasya gopā sindhupatī kṣatriyā yātam arvāk | iḷāṃ no mitrāvaruṇota vṛṣṭim ava diva invataṃ jīradānū ||

Kings, guards of mighty everlasting Order, come hitherward, ye Princes, Lords of Rivers. Send us from heaven, O Varuna and Mitra, rain and sweet food, ye who pour down your bounties.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

मित्रस् तन् नो वरुणो देवो अर्यः प्र साधिष्ठेभिः पथिभिर् नयन्तु । ब्रवद् यथा न आद् अरिः सुदास इषा मदेम सह देवगोपाः ॥

mitras tan no varuṇo devo aryaḥ pra sādhiṣṭhebhiḥ pathibhir nayantu | bravad yathā na ād ariḥ sudāsa iṣā madema saha devagopāḥ ||

May the dear God, and Varuna and Mitra conduct us by the most effective pathways, That foes may say unto Sudas our chieftain, May, we, too, joy in food with Gods to guard us.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

यो वां गर्तम् मनसा तक्षद् एतम् ऊर्ध्वां धीतिं कृणवद् धारयच् च । उक्षेथाम् मित्रावरुणा घृतेन ता राजाना सुक्षितीस् तर्पयेथाम् ॥

yo vāṃ gartam manasā takṣad etam ūrdhvāṃ dhītiṃ kṛṇavad dhārayac ca | ukṣethām mitrāvaruṇā ghṛtena tā rājānā sukṣitīs tarpayethām ||

Him who hath wrought for you this car in spirit, who makes the song rise upward and sustains it, Bedew with fatness, Varuna nd Mitra ye Kings, make glad the pleasant dwelling-places.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

एष स्तोमो वरुण मित्र तुभ्यं सोमः शुक्रो न वायवे ऽयामि । अविष्टं धियो जिगृतम् पुरन्धीर् यूयम् पात स्वस्तिभिः सदा नः ॥

eṣa stomo varuṇa mitra tubhyaṃ somaḥ śukro na vāyave 'yāmi | aviṣṭaṃ dhiyo jigṛtam purandhīr yūyam pāta svastibhiḥ sadā naḥ ||

To you this laud, O Varuna and Mitra is offered like bright Soma juice to Vayu. Favour our songs of praise, wake thought and spirit. Preserve us evermore, ye Gods, with blessings.
