Rigveda Samhita — Mandala 1 — Chapter 139

RV 1 139.1

अस्तु श्रौषट् पुरो अग्निꣳ धिया दध आ नु तच् छर्धो दिव्यꣳ वृणीमह इन्द्रवायू वृणीमहे । यद् ध क्राणा विवस्वति नाभा सꣳदायि नव्यसी । अध प्र सू न उप यन्तु धीतयो देवाꣳ अच्छा न धीतयः

astu śrauṣaṭ puro agniṁ dhiyā dadha ā nu tac chardho divyaṁ vṛṇīmaha indravāyū vṛṇīmahe | yad dha krāṇā vivasvati nābhā saṁdāyi navyasī | adha pra sū na upa yantu dhītayo devām̐ acchā na dhītayaḥ

Let there be the call 'śrauṣaṭ!' — I set Agni in front with my thought. Now we choose that heavenly host, we choose Indra and Vāyu. Since indeed a newer (bond), being made, was fastened at the navel in Vivasvat, so let our thoughts come forth to us, our thoughts (going) toward the gods.

RV 1 139.2

यद् ध त्यन् मित्रावरुणाव् ऋताद् अध्य् आददाथे अनृतꣳ स्वेन मन्युना दक्षस्य स्वेन मन्युना । युवोर् इत्थाधि सद्मस्व् अपश्याम हिरण्ययम् । धीभिश् चन मनसा स्वेभिर् अक्षभिः सोमस्य स्वेभिर् अक्षभिः

yad dha tyan mitrāvaruṇāv ṛtād adhy ādadāthe anṛtaṁ svena manyunā dakṣasya svena manyunā | yuvor itthādhi sadmasv apaśyāma hiraṇyayam | dhībhiś cana manasā svebhir akṣabhiḥ somasya svebhir akṣabhiḥ

That untruth which, O Mitra and Varuṇa, you take away from the truth by your own zeal, by the own zeal of your skill — that golden (thing) of you two we have seen thus among the seats, with our insights, with our mind, with our own eyes, with the very eyes of soma.

RV 1 139.3

युवाꣳ स्तोमेभिर् देवयन्तो अश्विनाश्रावयन्त इव श्लोकम् आयवो युवाꣳ हव्याभ्य् आ३यवः । युवोर् विश्वा अधि श्रियः पृक्षश् च विश्ववेदसा । प्रुषायन्ते वाम् पवयो हिरण्यये रथे दस्रा हिरण्यये

yuvāṁ stomebhir devayanto aśvināśrāvayanta iva ślokam āyavo yuvāṁ havyābhy ā3yavaḥ | yuvor viśvā adhi śriyaḥ pṛkṣaś ca viśvavedasā | pruṣāyante vām pavayo hiraṇyaye rathe dasrā hiraṇyaye

You two, O Aśvins, the Āyus, seeking the gods, (approach) with praises, like men making the call resound; you the Āyus (approach) with oblations. All splendours are upon you two, and refreshments, O you who possess all. Your felly-rims sprinkle (moisture), on the golden chariot, O wondrous ones, on the golden one.

RV 1 139.4

अचेति दस्रा व्य् उ१ नाकम् ऋण्वथो युञ्जते वाꣳ रथयुजो दिविष्टिष्व् अध्वस्मानो दिविष्टिषु । अधि वाꣳ स्थाम वन्धुरे रथे दस्रा हिरण्यये । पथेव यन्ताव् अनुशासता रजो ऽञ्जसा शासता रजः

aceti dasrā vy u1 nākam ṛṇvatho yuñjate vāṁ rathayujo diviṣṭiṣv adhvasmāno diviṣṭiṣu | adhi vāṁ sthāma vandhure rathe dasrā hiraṇyaye | patheva yantāv anuśāsatā rajo 'ñjasā śāsatā rajaḥ

It has come into view, O wondrous ones: you open up the vault. The chariot-yokers yoke (the horses) for you at the rites at dawn, the dustless ones at the rites at dawn. Your standing-place is up on the seat-board of the golden chariot, O wondrous ones. Like two who travel by a road, directing the airy space, straightway ruling the space.

शचीभिर् नः शचीवसू दिवा नक्तꣳ दशस्यतम् । मा वाꣳ रातिर् उप दसत् कदा चनास्मद् रातिः कदा चन

śacībhir naḥ śacīvasū divā naktaṁ daśasyatam | mā vāṁ rātir upa dasat kadā canāsmad rātiḥ kadā cana

With your powers, O you rich in power, show us favour by day and by night. Let your gift never fail, never our gift from you.

RV 1 139.6

वृषन्न् इन्द्र वृषपाणास इन्दव इमे सुता अद्रिषुतास उद्भिदस् तुभ्यꣳ सुतास उद्भिदः । ते त्वा मन्दन्तु दावने महे चित्राय राधसे । गीर्भिर् गिर्वाहः स्तवमान आ गहि सुमृऴीको न आ गहि

vṛṣann indra vṛṣapāṇāsa indava ime sutā adriṣutāsa udbhidas tubhyaṁ sutāsa udbhidaḥ | te tvā mandantu dāvane mahe citrāya rādhase | gīrbhir girvāhaḥ stavamāna ā gahi sumṛḻīko na ā gahi

O bull Indra, these drops, drinks for the bull, these pressed out, pressed with the stones, bursting forth, for you pressed out, bursting forth. Let them gladden you for giving, for great and bright bounty. O you who are carried by songs, being praised with songs, come; come to us full of kindness.

RV 1 139.7

ओ षू णो अग्ने शृणुहि त्वम् ईऴितो देवेभ्यो ब्रवसि यज्ञियेभ्यो राजभ्यो यज्ञियेभ्यः । यद् ध त्याम् अङ्गिरोभ्यो धेनुꣳ देवा अदत्तन । वि ताꣳ दुह्रे अर्यमा कर्तरी सचाꣳ एष ताꣳ वेद मे सचा

o ṣū ṇo agne śṛṇuhi tvam īḻito devebhyo bravasi yajñiyebhyo rājabhyo yajñiyebhyaḥ | yad dha tyām aṅgirobhyo dhenuṁ devā adattana | vi tāṁ duhre aryamā kartarī sacām̐ eṣa tāṁ veda me sacā

Hear us well, O Agni; you, when invoked, speak to the gods who are worthy of sacrifice, to the kings worthy of sacrifice. When, O gods, you gave that cow to the Aṅgirases — they milked her out; Aryaman was there with them at the work; he knows her, together with me.

RV 1 139.8

मो षु वो अस्मद् अभि तानि पौꣳस्या सना भूवन् द्युम्नानि मोत जारिषुर् अस्मत् पुरोत जारिषुः । यद् वश् चित्रꣳ युगे-युगे नव्यꣳ घोषाद् अमर्त्यम् । अस्मासु तन् मरुतो यच् च दुष्टरꣳ दिधृता यच् च दुष्टरम्

mo ṣu vo asmad abhi tāni pauṁsyā sanā bhūvan dyumnāni mota jāriṣur asmat purota jāriṣuḥ | yad vaś citraṁ yuge-yuge navyaṁ ghoṣād amartyam | asmāsu tan maruto yac ca duṣṭaraṁ didhṛtā yac ca duṣṭaram

Let not those manly deeds of yours pass away from us, nor your splendours grow old, nor grow old before us. Whatever of yours is bright, new in age after age, immortal, may it resound: hold that firm in us, O Maruts, and what is hard to overcome, and what is hard to overcome.

RV 1 139.9

दध्यङ् ह मे जनुषम् पूर्वो अङ्गिराः प्रियमेधः कण्वो अत्रिर् मनुर् विदुस् ते मे पूर्वे मनुर् विदुः । तेषाꣳ देवेष्व् आयतिर् अस्माकꣳ तेषु नाभयः । तेषाम् पदेन मह्य् आ नमे गिरेन्द्राग्नी आ नमे गिरा

dadhyaṅ ha me januṣam pūrvo aṅgirāḥ priyamedhaḥ kaṇvo atrir manur vidus te me pūrve manur viduḥ | teṣāṁ deveṣv āyatir asmākaṁ teṣu nābhayaḥ | teṣām padena mahy ā name girendrāgnī ā name girā

Dadhyañc, the earlier Aṅgiras, Priyamedha, Kaṇva, Atri, Manu — they knew my descent; those forefathers of mine, Manu, knew it. Their line of approach is among the gods, our kinship-bonds are in them. With their step I bow low with my song, with my song I bow to Indra and Agni.

RV 1 139.10

होता यक्षद् वनिनो वन्त वार्यम् बृहस्पतिर् यजति वेन उक्षभिः पुरुवारेभिर् उक्षभिः । जगृभ्मा दूरआदिशꣳ श्लोकम् अद्रेर् अध त्मना । अधारयद् अररिन्दानि सुक्रतुः पुरू सद्मानि सुक्रतुः

hotā yakṣad vanino vanta vāryam bṛhaspatir yajati vena ukṣabhiḥ puruvārebhir ukṣabhiḥ | jagṛbhmā dūraādiśaṁ ślokam adrer adha tmanā | adhārayad ararindāni sukratuḥ purū sadmāni sukratuḥ

Let the hotṛ sacrifice; let the wood-dwellers(?) win what is desirable. Bṛhaspati sacrifices, the seer, with oxen, with much-desired oxen. We have grasped the far-signalling sound of the pressing-stone, and then by itself. The very resolute one has upheld the ararinda (things), the very resolute one many seats.

ये देवासो दिव्य् एकादश स्थ पृथिव्याम् अध्य् एकादश स्थ । अप्सुक्षितो महिनैकादश स्थ ते देवासो यज्ञम् इमꣳ जुषध्वम्

ye devāso divy ekādaśa stha pṛthivyām adhy ekādaśa stha | apsukṣito mahinaikādaśa stha te devāso yajñam imaṁ juṣadhvam

You gods who are eleven in heaven, who are eleven upon the earth, who dwell in the waters and are eleven by your might — you gods, take pleasure in this sacrifice.
