सूक्त ३६

सत्रा मदासस्तव विश्वजन्याः सत्रा रायोऽध ये पार्थिवासः। सत्रा वाजानामभवो विभक्ता यद्देवेषु धारयथा असुर्यम्॥

satrā madāsastava viśvajanyāḥ satrā rāyo'dha ye pārthivāsaḥ | satrā vājānāmabhavo vibhaktā yaddeveṣu dhārayathā asuryam ||

THY raptures ever were for all men's profit: so evermore have been thine earthly riches. Thou still hast been the dealer-forth of vigour, since among Gods thou hast had power and Godhead.

अनु प्र येजे जन ओजो अस्य सत्रा दधिरे अनु वीर्याय। स्यूमगृभे दुधयेऽर्वते च क्रतुं वृञ्जन्त्यपि वृत्रहत्ये॥

Men have obtained his strength by sacrificing, and ever urged him, on to hero valour. For the rein-seizing, the impetuous Charger they furnished power even for Vrtra's slaughter.

तं सध्रीचीरूतयो वृष्ण्यानि पौंस्यानि नियुतः सश्चुरिन्द्रम्। समुद्रं न सिन्धव उक्थशुष्मा उरुव्यचसं गिर आ विशन्ति॥

taṁ sadhrīcīrūtayo vṛṣṇyāni pauṁsyāni niyutaḥ saścurindram | samudraṁ na sindhava ukthaśuṣmā uruvyacasaṁ gira ā viśanti ||

Associate with him, as teams of horses, help, manly might, and vigour follow Indra. As rivers reach the sea, so, strong with praises, our holy songs reach him the Comprehensive.

स रायस्खामुप सृजा गृणानः पुरुश्चन्द्रस्य त्वमिन्द्र वस्वः। पतिर्बभूथासमो जनानामेको विश्वस्य भुवनस्य राजा॥

sa rāyaskhāmupa sṛjā gṛṇānaḥ puruścandrasya tvamindra vasvaḥ | patirbabhūthāsamo janānāmeko viśvasya bhuvanasya rājā ||

Lauded by us, let flow the spring, O Indra, of excellent and brightly-shining riches. For thou art Lord of men, without an equal: of all the world thou art the only Sovran.

स तु श्रुधि श्रुत्या यो दुवोयुर्द्यौर्न भूमाभि रायो अर्यः। असो यथा नः शवसा चकानो युगेयुगे वयसा चेकितानः॥

sa tu śrudhi śrutyā yo duvoyurdyaurna bhūmābhi rāyo aryaḥ | aso yathā naḥ śavasā cakāno yugeyuge vayasā cekitānaḥ ||

Hear what thou mayst hear, thou who, fain for worship, as heaven girds earth, guardest thy servant's treasure; Tlat thou mayst be our own, joying in power, famed through thy might in every generation.
