Rigveda Samhita — Mandala 4 — Chapter 36

RV 4 36.1

अनश्वो जातो अनभीशुर् उक्थ्यो३ रथस् त्रिचक्रः परि वर्तते रजः । महत् तद् वो देव्यस्य प्रवाचनꣳ द्याम् ऋभवः पृथिवीꣳ यच् च पुष्यथ

anaśvo jāto anabhīśur ukthyo3 rathas tricakraḥ pari vartate rajaḥ | mahat tad vo devyasya pravācanaṁ dyām ṛbhavaḥ pṛthivīṁ yac ca puṣyatha

Born without a horse, without reins, worthy of the hymn, the three-wheeled chariot rolls around the airy space. Great is that proclamation of your divine (power), that you make heaven and earth thrive, Ṛbhus.

रथꣳ ये चक्रुः सुवृतꣳ सुचेतसो ऽविह्वरन्तम् मनसस् परि ध्यया । ताꣳ ऊ न्व् अ१स्य सवनस्य पीतय आ वो वाजा ऋभवो वेदयामसि

RV 4 36.3

तद् वो वाजा ऋभवः सुप्रवाचनꣳ देवेषु विभ्वो अभवन् महित्वनम् । जिव्री यत् सन्ता पितरा सनाजुरा पुनर् युवाना चरथाय तक्षथ

tad vo vājā ṛbhavaḥ supravācanaṁ deveṣu vibhvo abhavan mahitvanam | jivrī yat santā pitarā sanājurā punar yuvānā carathāya takṣatha

That was your greatness, well worth proclaiming among the gods, O Vājas, Ṛbhus, Vibhvan: that the parents, being frail and long worn out with age, you fashioned young again for moving about.

RV 4 36.4

एकꣳ वि चक्र चमसꣳ चतुर्वयꣳ निश् चर्मणो गाम् अरिणीत धीतिभिः । अथा देवेष्व् अमृतत्वम् आनश श्रुष्टी वाजा ऋभवस् तद् व उक्थ्यम्

ekaṁ vi cakra camasaṁ caturvayaṁ niś carmaṇo gām ariṇīta dhītibhiḥ | athā deveṣv amṛtatvam ānaśa śruṣṭī vājā ṛbhavas tad va ukthyam

The one cup you divided fourfold; out of a hide you made a cow flow by your insights. Then among the gods you readily attained immortality. Vājas, Ṛbhus, that of yours is worthy of the hymn.

ऋभुतो रयिः प्रथमश्रवस्तमो वाजश्रुतासो यम् अजीजनन् नरः । विभ्वतष्टो विदथेषु प्रवाच्यो यꣳ देवासो ऽवथा स विचर्षणिः

Wealth coming from the Ṛbhus, foremost in fame, which the men famed for prizes begot; fashioned by Vibhvan, to be proclaimed at the ritual assemblies — whomever you gods aid, he is outstanding.

He is a prize-winning racer, he a seer by eloquence, he a hero archer, hard to overcome in battles; he wins increase of wealth, he wins abundance of men — the one whom Vāja, Vibhvan, and the Ṛbhus have helped.

Your finest adornment, fair to see, has been set upon (you): (it is) the praise-song, O Vājas, Ṛbhus — take pleasure in it. For you are steadfast, poets, knowing the inspired word; you, such as you are, we make known by this formulation.
