सूक्त ८४

त्वया मन्यो सरथमारुजन्तो हर्षमाणासो धृषिता मरुत्वः। तिग्मेषव आयुधा संशिशाना अभि प्र यन्तु नरो अग्निरूपाः॥

tvayā manyo sarathamārujanto harṣamāṇāso dhṛṣitā marutvaḥ | tigmeṣava āyudhā saṁśiśānā abhi pra yantu naro agnirūpāḥ ||

BORNE on with thee, O Manyu girt by Maruts, let our brave men, impetuous, bursting forward, March on, like flames of fire in form, exulting, with pointed arrows, sharpening their weapons.

अग्निरिव मन्यो त्विषितः सहस्व सेनानीर्नः सहुरे हूत एधि। हत्वाय शत्रून्वि भजस्व वेद ओजो मिमानो वि मृधो नुदस्व॥

agniriva manyo tviṣitaḥ sahasva senānīrnaḥ sahure hūta edhi | hatvāya śatrūnvi bhajasva veda ojo mimāno vi mṛdho nudasva ||

Flashing like fire, be thou, O conquering Manyu, invoked, O Victor, as our army's leader. Slay thou our foes, distribute their possessions: show forth thy vigour, scatter those who hate us.

sahasva manyo abhimātimasme rujanmṛṇanpramṛṇanprehi śatrūn | ugraṁ te pājo nanvā rurudhre vaśī vaśaṁ nayasa ekaja tvam ||

O Manyu, overcome thou our assailant on! breaking, slaying, crushing down the foemen. They have not hindered thine impetuous vigour: Mighty, Sole born! thou makest them thy subjects.

एको बहूनामसि मन्यवीळितो विशंविशं युधये सं शिशाधि। अकृत्तरुक्त्वया युजा वयं द्युमन्तं घोषं विजयाय कृण्महे॥

eko bahūnāmasi manyavīḻito viśaṁviśaṁ yudhaye saṁ śiśādhi | akṛttaruktvayā yujā vayaṁ dyumantaṁ ghoṣaṁ vijayāya kṛṇmahe ||

Alone or many thou art worshipped, Manyu: sharpen the spirit of each clan for battle. With thee to aid, O thou of perfect splendour, we will uplift the glorious shout for conquest.

विजेषकृदिन्द्र इवानवब्रवोऽस्माकं मन्यो अधिपा भवेह। प्रियं ते नाम सहुरे गृणीमसि विद्मा तमुत्सं यत आबभूथ॥

vijeṣakṛdindra ivānavabravo'smākaṁ manyo adhipā bhaveha | priyaṁ te nāma sahure gṛṇīmasi vidmā tamutsaṁ yata ābabhūtha ||

Unyielding bringing victory like Indra, O Manyu, be thou here our Sovran Ruler. To thy dear name, O Victor, we sing praises: we know the spring from which thou art come hither.

आभूत्या सहजा वज्र सायक सहो बिभर्ष्यभिभूत उत्तरम्। क्रत्वा नो मन्यो सह मेद्येधि महाधनस्य पुरुहूत संसृजि॥

ābhūtyā sahajā vajra sāyaka saho bibharṣyabhibhūta uttaram | kratvā no manyo saha medyedhi mahādhanasya puruhūta saṁsṛji ||

Twin-born with power, destructive bolt of thunder, the highest conquering might is thine, Subduer! Be friendly to its in thy spirit, Manyu, O Much-invoked, in shock of mighty battle.

संसृष्टं धनमुभयं समाकृतमस्मभ्यं दत्तां वरुणश्च मन्युः। भियं दधाना हृदयेषु शत्रवः पराजितासो अप नि लयन्ताम्॥

saṁsṛṣṭaṁ dhanamubhayaṁ samākṛtamasmabhyaṁ dattāṁ varuṇaśca manyuḥ | bhiyaṁ dadhānā hṛdayeṣu śatravaḥ parājitāso apa ni layantām ||

For spoil let Varuna and Manyu give us the wealth of both sides gathered and collected; And let our enemies with stricken spirits, o'erwhelmed with terror, slink away defeated.
