Rigveda Samhita — Mandala 1 — Chapter 138

RV 1 138.1

प्र-प्र पूष्णस् तुविजातस्य शस्यते महित्वम् अस्य तवसो न तन्दते स्तोत्रम् अस्य न तन्दते । अर्चामि सुम्नयन्न् अहम् अन्त्यूतिम् मयोभुवम् । विश्वस्य यो मन आयुयुवे मखो देव आयुयुवे मखः

pra-pra pūṣṇas tuvijātasya śasyate mahitvam asya tavaso na tandate stotram asya na tandate | arcāmi sumnayann aham antyūtim mayobhuvam | viśvasya yo mana āyuyuve makho deva āyuyuve makhaḥ

Again and again the greatness of Pūṣan of mighty birth is proclaimed; the praise of him, the strong one, does not flag, does not flag. Seeking favour, I sing to him whose help is near, who brings comfort — the liberal one (makha) who has drawn to himself the mind of all, the liberal god has drawn it to himself.

RV 1 138.2

प्र हि त्वा पूषन्न् अजिरꣳ न यामनि स्तोमेभिः कृण्व ऋणवो यथा मृध उष्ट्रो न पीपरो मृधः । हुवे यत् त्वा मयोभुवꣳ देवꣳ सख्याय मर्त्यः । अस्माकम् आङ्गूषान् द्युम्निनस् कृधि वाजेषु द्युम्निनस् कृधि

pra hi tvā pūṣann ajiraṁ na yāmani stomebhiḥ kṛṇva ṛṇavo yathā mṛdha uṣṭro na pīparo mṛdhaḥ | huve yat tvā mayobhuvaṁ devaṁ sakhyāya martyaḥ | asmākam āṅgūṣān dyumninas kṛdhi vājeṣu dyumninas kṛdhi

For with my praises I urge you on, Pūṣan, as (one urges) a swift (horse) on its course, that you may drive off the scorners; like a camel may you carry (us) past the scorners. Since I, a mortal, call on you, the comfort-bringing god, for friendship — make our songs of praise brilliant, make (them) brilliant in the contests for prizes.

RV 1 138.3

यस्य ते पूषन् सख्ये विपन्यवः क्रत्वा चित् सन्तो ऽवसा बुभुज्रिर इति क्रत्वा बुभुज्रिरे । ताम् अनु त्वा नवीयसीꣳ नियुतꣳ राय ईमहे । अहेऴमान उरुशꣳस सरी भव वाजे-वाजे सरी भव

yasya te pūṣan sakhye vipanyavaḥ kratvā cit santo 'vasā bubhujrira iti kratvā bubhujrire | tām anu tvā navīyasīṁ niyutaṁ rāya īmahe | aheḻamāna uruśaṁsa sarī bhava vāje-vāje sarī bhava

O Pūṣan, in whose friendship those eager to praise, being (men) of resolve, have found enjoyment by your aid — thus by (your) resolve have they found enjoyment: following that, we beg of you a newer team for wealth. Without anger, O widely-famed one, be a running companion (to us), in prize after prize be a running companion.

RV 1 138.4

अस्या ऊ षु ण उप सातये भुवो ऽहेऴमानो ररिवाꣳ अजाश्व श्रवस्यताम् अजाश्व । ओ षु त्वा ववृतीमहि स्तोमेभिर् दस्म साधुभिः । नहि त्वा पूषन्न् अतिमन्य आघृणे न ते सख्यम् अपह्नुवे

asyā ū ṣu ṇa upa sātaye bhuvo 'heḻamāno rarivām̐ ajāśva śravasyatām ajāśva | o ṣu tvā vavṛtīmahi stomebhir dasma sādhubhiḥ | nahi tvā pūṣann atimanya āghṛṇe na te sakhyam apahnuve

Be here, right well, for the winning of this (prize) for us, without anger, being generous, O you whose horses are goats, (generous) toward those who seek renown, O you whose horses are goats. Right well may we turn you hither with good hymns of praise, O wondrous one. For I do not slight you, Pūṣan, O glowing one, nor do I disown your friendship.
