Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 7.91

कुविद् अङ्ग नमसा ये वृधासः पुरा देवा अनवद्यास आसन् । ते वायवे मनवे बाधितायावासयन्न् उषसं सूर्येण ॥

kuvid aṅga namasā ye vṛdhāsaḥ purā devā anavadyāsa āsan | te vāyave manave bādhitāyāvāsayann uṣasaṃ sūryeṇa ||

Were not in sooth, the Gods aforetime blameless, whose pleasure was increased by adoration? For Vayu and for man in his affliction they caused the Morning to arise with Surya.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

उशन्ता दूता न दभाय गोपा मासश् च पाथः शरदश् च पूर्वीः । इन्द्रवायू सुष्टुतिर् वाम् इयाना मार्डीकम् ईट्टे सुवितं च नव्यम् ॥

uśantā dūtā na dabhāya gopā māsaś ca pāthaḥ śaradaś ca pūrvīḥ | indravāyū suṣṭutir vām iyānā mārḍīkam īṭṭe suvitaṃ ca navyam ||

Guardians infallible, eager as envoys' preserve us safe through many months and autumns. Addressed to you, our fair praise, Indra-Vayu, implores your favour and renewed well-being.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

पीवोअन्नां रयिवृधः सुमेधाः श्वेतः सिषक्ति नियुताम् अभिश्रीः । ते वायवे समनसो वि तस्थुर् विश्वेन् नरः स्वपत्यानि चक्रुः ॥

pīvoannāṃ rayivṛdhaḥ sumedhāḥ śvetaḥ siṣakti niyutām abhiśrīḥ | te vāyave samanaso vi tasthur viśven naraḥ svapatyāni cakruḥ ||

Wise, bright, arranger of his teams, he. seeketh men with rich food whose treasures are abundant. They have arranged them of one mind with Vayu: the men have wrought all noble operations.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

यावत् तरस् तन्वो यावद् ओजो यावन् नरश् चक्षसा दीध्यानाः । शुचिं सोमं शुचिपा पातम् अस्मे इन्द्रवायू सदतम् बर्हिर् एदम् ॥

yāvat taras tanvo yāvad ojo yāvan naraś cakṣasā dīdhyānāḥ | śuciṃ somaṃ śucipā pātam asme indravāyū sadatam barhir edam ||

So far as native power and strength permit you, so far as men behold whose eyes have vision, O ye pure-drinkers, drink with us pure Soma: sit on this sacred grass, Indra and Vayu.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

नियुवाना नियुत स्पार्हवीरा इन्द्रवायू सरथं यातम् अर्वाक् । इदं हि वाम् प्रभृतम् मध्वो अग्रम् अध प्रीणाना वि मुमुक्तम् अस्मे ॥

niyuvānā niyuta spārhavīrā indravāyū sarathaṃ yātam arvāk | idaṃ hi vām prabhṛtam madhvo agram adha prīṇānā vi mumuktam asme ||

Driving down teams that bear the lovely Heroes, hitherward, Indra-Vayu, come together. To you this prime of savoury juice is offered: here loose your horses and be friendly-minded.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

या वां शतं नियुतो याः सहस्रम् इन्द्रवायू विश्ववाराः सचन्ते । आभिर् यातं सुविदत्राभिर् अर्वाक् पातं नरा प्रतिभृतस्य मध्वः ॥

yā vāṃ śataṃ niyuto yāḥ sahasram indravāyū viśvavārāḥ sacante | ābhir yātaṃ suvidatrābhir arvāk pātaṃ narā pratibhṛtasya madhvaḥ ||

Your hundred and your thousand teams, O Indra and Vayu, all-munificent, which attend you, With these most gracious-minded come ye hither, and drink, O Heroes of the meath we offer.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

अर्वन्तो न श्रवसो भिक्षमाणा इन्द्रवायू सुष्टुतिभिर् वसिष्ठाः । वाजयन्तः स्व् अवसे हुवेम यूयम् पात स्वस्तिभिः सदा नः ॥

arvanto na śravaso bhikṣamāṇā indravāyū suṣṭutibhir vasiṣṭhāḥ | vājayantaḥ sv avase huvema yūyam pāta svastibhiḥ sadā naḥ ||

Like coursers seeking fame will we Vasisthas, O Indra-Vayu, with our fair laudations, Exerting all our power, call you to aid us. Preserve us evermore, ye Gods, with blessings.
