Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 7.84

आ वां राजानाव् अध्वरे ववृत्यां हव्येभिर् इन्द्रावरुणा नमोभिः । प्र वां घृताची बाह्वोर् दधाना परि त्मना विषुरूपा जिगाति ॥

ā vāṃ rājānāv adhvare vavṛtyāṃ havyebhir indrāvaruṇā namobhiḥ | pra vāṃ ghṛtācī bāhvor dadhānā pari tmanā viṣurūpā jigāti ||

Kings, Indra-Varuna, I would turn you hither to this our sacrifice with gifts and homage. Held in both arms the ladle, dropping fatness, goes of itself to you whose forms are varied.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

युवो राष्ट्रम् बृहद् इन्वति द्यौर् यौ सेतृभिर् अरज्जुभिः सिनीथः । परि नो हेळो वरुणस्य वृज्या उरुं न इन्द्रः कृणवद् उ लोकम् ॥

yuvo rāṣṭram bṛhad invati dyaur yau setṛbhir arajjubhiḥ sinīthaḥ | pari no heḷo varuṇasya vṛjyā uruṃ na indraḥ kṛṇavad u lokam ||

Dyaus quickens and promotes your high dominion who bind with bonds not wrought of rope or cordage. Far from us still be Varuna's displeasure may Indra give us spacious room to dwell in.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

कृतं नो यज्ञं विदथेषु चारुं कृतम् ब्रह्माणि सूरिषु प्रशस्ता । उपो रयिर् देवजूतो न एतु प्र ण स्पार्हाभिर् ऊतिभिस् तिरेतम् ॥

kṛtaṃ no yajñaṃ vidatheṣu cāruṃ kṛtam brahmāṇi sūriṣu praśastā | upo rayir devajūto na etu pra ṇa spārhābhir ūtibhis tiretam ||

Make ye our sacrifice fair amid the assemblies: make ye our prayers approved among our princes. May God-sent riches come for our possession: further ye us with your delightful succours.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

अस्मे इन्द्रावरुणा विश्ववारं रयिं धत्तं वसुमन्तम् पुरुक्षुम् । प्र य आदित्यो अनृता मिनात्य् अमिता शूरो दयते वसूनि ॥

asme indrāvaruṇā viśvavāraṃ rayiṃ dhattaṃ vasumantam purukṣum | pra ya ādityo anṛtā mināty amitā śūro dayate vasūni ||

O Indra-Varuna, vouchsafe us riches with store of treasure, food, and every blessing; For the Aditya, banisher of falsehood, the Hero, dealeth wealth in boundless plenty.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

इयम् इन्द्रं वरुणम् अष्ट मे गीः प्रावत् तोके तनये तूतुजाना । सुरत्नासो देववीतिं गमेम यूयम् पात स्वस्तिभिः सदा नः ॥

iyam indraṃ varuṇam aṣṭa me gīḥ prāvat toke tanaye tūtujānā | suratnāso devavītiṃ gamema yūyam pāta svastibhiḥ sadā naḥ ||

May this my song reach Varuna and Indra, and, strongly urging, win me sons and offspring. To the Gods' banquet may we go with riches. Preserve us evermore, ye Gods, with blessings.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
