5,56 Maruts 
5.LVI Maruts 
ágne śárdhantam ā́ gaṇám piṣṭáṃ rukmébhir añjíbhiḥ |
víśo adyá marútãm áva hvaye diváś cid rocanā́d ádhi || 
1 AGNI, that valorous company adorned with ornaments of gold, The people of the Maruts, I call down to-day even from the luminous realm of heaven. 
yáthā cin mányase hr̥dā́ tád ín me jagmur āśásaḥ |
yé te nédiṣṭhaṃ hávanāni āgáman tā́n vardha bhīmásaṃdr̥śaḥ || 
2 Even as thou thinkest in thy heart, thither my wishes also tend. Those who have come most near to thine invoking calls, strengthen them fearful to behold. 
mīḷhúṣmatīva pr̥thivī́ párāhatā mádanti eti asmád ā́ |
ŕ̥kṣo ná vo marutaḥ śímīvām̐ ámo dudhró gaúr iva bhīmayúḥ || 
3 Earth, like a bounteous lady, liberal of her gifts, struck down and shaken, yet exultant, comes to us. Impetuous as a bear, O Maruts, is youi rush terrible as a dreadful bull. . 
ní yé riṇánti ójasā vŕ̥thā gā́vo ná durdhúraḥ |
áśmānaṃ cit svaríyam párvataṃ girím prá cyāvayanti yā́mabhiḥ || 
4 They who with mighty strength o’erthrow like oxen difficult to yoke, Cause e’en the heavenly stone to shake ' yea, shake the rocky mountain as they race along. 
út tiṣṭha nūnám eṣãṃ stómaiḥ sámukṣitānãm |
marútãm purutámam ápūrviyaṃ gávāṃ sárgam iva hvaye || 
5 Rise up! even now with lauds I call the very numerous company, Unequalled, of these Maruts, like a herd of kine, grown up together in their strength. 
yuṅgdhváṃ hí áruṣī ráthe yuṅgdhváṃ rátheṣu rohítaḥ |
yuṅgdhváṃ hárī ajirā́ dhurí vóḷhave váhiṣṭhā dhurí vóḷhave || 
6 Bind to your car the bright red mares, yoke the red coursers to your car. Bind to the pole, to draw, the fleet-foot tawny steeds, the best at drawing, to the pole. 
utá syá vājī́ aruṣás tuviṣváṇir ihá sma dhāyi darśatáḥ |
mā́ vo yā́meṣu marutaś ciráṃ karat prá táṃ rátheṣu codata || 
7 Yea, and this loudly-neighing bright red vigorous horse who hath been sutioned, fair to see, Let him not cause delay, O Maruts, , in your course, urge ye him onward in your cars. 
ráthaṃ nú mā́rutaṃ vayáṃ śravasyúm ā́ huvāmahe |
ā́ yásmin tasthaú suráṇāni bíbhratī sácā marútsu rodasī́ || 
8 The Maruts’ chariot, ever fain to gather glory, we invoke, Which Rodasī hath mounted, bringing pleasant gifts, with Maruts in her company. 
táṃ vaḥ śárdhaṃ ratheśúbhaṃ tveṣám panasyúm ā́ huve |
yásmin sújātā subhágā mahīyáte sácā marútsu mīḷhuṣī́ || 
9 I call that brilliant band of yours, adorable, rapid on the car Whereon the bounteous Dame, auspicious, nobly born, shows glorious with the Marut host.
