Library·Ṛgveda Saṃhitā·7·7.73
अतारिष्म तमसस् पारम् अस्य प्रति स्तोमं देवयन्तो दधानाः । पुरुदंसा पुरुतमा पुराजामर्त्या हवते अश्विना गीः ॥
atāriṣma tamasas pāram asya prati stomaṃ devayanto dadhānāḥ | purudaṃsā purutamā purājāmartyā havate aśvinā gīḥ ||
We have o'erpassed the limit of this darkness while, worshipping the Gods, we sang their praises. The song invoketh both Immortal Asvins far-reaching, born of old, great WonderWorkers.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
न्य् उ प्रियो मनुषः सादि होता नासत्या यो यजते वन्दते च । अश्नीतम् मध्वो अश्विना उपाक आ वां वोचे विदथेषु प्रयस्वान् ॥
ny u priyo manuṣaḥ sādi hotā nāsatyā yo yajate vandate ca | aśnītam madhvo aśvinā upāka ā vāṃ voce vidatheṣu prayasvān ||
And, O Nasatyas, man's dear Priest is seated, who brings to sacrifice and offers worship, Be near and taste the pleasant juice, O Asvins: with food, I call you to the sacrifices.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
अहेम यज्ञम् पथाम् उराणा इमां सुवृक्तिं वृषणा जुषेथाम् । श्रुष्टीवेव प्रेषितो वाम् अबोधि प्रति स्तोमैर् जरमाणो वसिष्ठः ॥
ahema yajñam pathām urāṇā imāṃ suvṛktiṃ vṛṣaṇā juṣethām | śruṣṭīveva preṣito vām abodhi prati stomair jaramāṇo vasiṣṭhaḥ ||
We choosing you, have let our worship follow its course: ye Steers, accept this hymn with favour. Obeying you as your appointed servant, Vasistha singing hath with lauds aroused you.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
उप त्या वह्नी गमतो विशं नो रक्षोहणा सम्भृता वीळुपाणी । सम् अन्धांस्य् अग्मत मत्सराणि मा नो मर्धिष्टम् आ गतं शिवेन ॥
upa tyā vahnī gamato viśaṃ no rakṣohaṇā sambhṛtā vīḷupāṇī | sam andhāṃsy agmata matsarāṇi mā no mardhiṣṭam ā gataṃ śivena ||
And these Two Priests come nigh unto our people, united, demon-slayers, mighty-handed. The juices that exhilarate are mingled. Injure us not, but come with happy fortune.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
आ पश्चातान् नासत्या पुरस्ताद् आश्विना यातम् अधराद् उदक्तात् । आ विश्वतः पाञ्चजन्येन राया यूयम् पात स्वस्तिभिः सदा नः ॥
ā paścātān nāsatyā purastād āśvinā yātam adharād udaktāt | ā viśvataḥ pāñcajanyena rāyā yūyam pāta svastibhiḥ sadā naḥ ||
Come from the west, come from the cast, Nasatyas, come, Asvins, from below and from above us. Bring wealth from all sides for the Fivefold People. Preserve us evermore, ye Gods, with blessings.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
