1.XLII Pūṣan

sám pūṣann ádhvanas tira ví áṃho vimuco napāt |
sákṣvā deva prá ṇas puráḥ ||

1 SHORTEN our ways, O Pūṣan, move aside obstruction in the path: Go close before us, cloud-born God.

yó naḥ pūṣann aghó vŕ̥ko duḥśéva ādídeśati |
ápa sma tám pathó jahi ||

2 Drive, Pūṣan, from our road the wolf, the wicked inauspicious wolf, Who lies in wait to injure us.

ápa tyám paripanthínam muṣīvā́ṇaṃ huraścítam |
dūrám ádhi srutér aja ||

3 Who lurks about the path we take, the robber with a guileful heart: Far from the road chase him away.

tuváṃ tásya dvayāvíno agháśaṃsasya kásya cit |
padā́bhí tiṣṭha tápuṣim ||

4 Tread with thy foot and trample out the firebrand of the wicked one, The double-tongued, whoe’er he be.

ā́ tát te dasra mantumaḥ pū́ṣann ávo vr̥ṇīmahe |
yéna pitr̥̄́n ácodayaḥ ||

5 Wise Pūṣan, Wonder-Worker, we claim of thee now the aid wherewith Thou furtheredst our sires of old.

ádhā no viśvasaubhaga híraṇyavāśīmattama |
dhánāni suṣáṇā kr̥dhi ||

6 So, Lord of all prosperity, best wielder of the golden sword, Make riches easy to be won.

áti naḥ saścáto naya sugā́ naḥ supáthā kr̥ṇu |
pū́ṣann ihá krátuṃ vidaḥ ||

7 Past all pursuers lead us, make pleasant our path and fair to tread: O Pūṣan, find thou power for this.

abhí sūyávasaṃ naya ná navajvāró ádhvane |
pū́ṣann ihá krátuṃ vidaḥ ||

8 Lead us to meadows rich in grass: send on our way no early heat: O Pūṣan, find thou power for this.

śagdhí pūrdhí prá yaṃsi ca śiśīhí prā́si udáram |
pū́ṣann ihá krátuṃ vidaḥ ||

9 Be gracious to us, fill us full, give, feed us, and invigorate: O Pūṣan, find thou power for this.

ná pūṣáṇam methāmasi sūktaír abhí gr̥ṇīmasi |
vásūni dasmám īmahe ||

10 No blame have we for Pūṣan; him we magnify with songs of praise: We seek the Mighty One for wealth.
