Bibliotheca Polyglotta

1 WITH hymns I call you, when the Sun hath risen, Mitra, and Varuṇa whose thoughts are holy, Whose Power Divine, supreme and everlasting, comes with good heed at each man's supplication.

tā́ hí devā́nām ásurā tā́v aryā́ tā́ naḥ kṣitī́ḥ karatam ūrjáyantīḥ |
aśyā́ma mitrāvaruṇā vayáṃ vāṃ dyā́vā ca yátra pīpáyann áhā ca ||

2 For they are Asuras of Gods, the friendly make, both of you, our lands exceeding fruitful. May we obtain you, Varuṇa and Mitra, wherever Heaven and Earth and days may bless us.

tā́ bhū́ripāśāv ánr̥tasya sétū duratyétū ripáve mártiyāya |
r̥tásya mitrāvaruṇā pathā́ vām apó ná nāvā́ duritā́ tarema ||

3 Bonds of the sinner, they bear many nooses: the wicked mortal hardly may escape them. Varuṇa-Mitra, may your path of Order bear us o’er trouble as a boat o’er waters.

ā́ no mitrāvaruṇā havyájuṣṭiṃ ghr̥taír gávyūtim ukṣatam íḷābhiḥ |
práti vām átra váram ā́ jánāya pr̥ṇītám udnó diviyásya cā́roḥ ||

4 Come, taste our offering, Varuṇa and Mitra: bedew our pasture wil sweet food and fatness. Pour down in plenty here upon the people the choicest of your fair celestial water.

eṣá stómo varuṇa mitra túbhyaṃ sómaḥ śukró ná vāyáve ayāmi |
aviṣṭáṃ dhíyo jigr̥tám púraṃdhīr yūyám pāta suastíbhiḥ sádā naḥ ||

5 To you this laud, O Varuṇa and Mitra, is offered, like bright Soma juice to Vāyu. Favour our songs of praise, wake thought and spirit. Preserve us evermore, ye Gods, with blessings.
