Mantra 3
Sukta 54
नेमिं नमन्ति चक्षसा मेषं विप्रा अभिस्वरा । सुदीतयो वो अद्रुहोऽपि कर्णे तरस्विनः समृक्वभिः
némim namanti cákṣasā méṣaṃ víprā abhí-svarāḥ | su-dītáyo vo ádruho 'pí kárṇe tarásvinaḥ sám-ṛkvabhiḥ
As men bend the wheel-rim with the eye, so the inspired, lifting voice, (their hymns) well-kindled—harmless—may they, with the united ṛk-singers, reach even to the ear of the impetuous One.
كما يثني الناسُ حافّةَ العجلةِ بالعين، كذلكَ ليُسمِعِ الـvipra بصوتٍ مرفوعٍ (ترانيمَهم) المشتعلةَ حسنًا—غيرَ مؤذية—ولْيبلغوا، مع مُنشدي الـṛk المتّحدين، حتى أُذنَ ذاك السريعِ الاندفاع.
Rishi: Ṛgvedic provenance (collective praise motif)
