Sukta 27
उत्स॒मक्षि॑तं॒ व्यच॑न्ति॒ ये सदा॒ य आ॑सि॒ञ्चन्ति॒ रस॒मोष॑धीषु । पु॒रो द॑धे मरुतः॒ पृश्नि॑मातृंस्ते नो॑ मुञ्च॒न्त्वंह॑सः
utsám ákṣitaṃ ví acanti yé sadā́ yá āsíñcanti rásam óṣadhīṣu | puró dadhé marutaḥ pṛ́śni-mātṝṃs té no muñcántv áṃhasaḥ ||
They who set flowing the unfailing spring for ever, who pour the sap within the herbs—those Maruts, Pṛśni’s sons, who set themselves before us as defence—let them release us from distress.
أولئك الذين يُجرون النبعَ الذي لا ينفد أبدًا، والذين يسكبون العُصارة في الأعشاب الدوائية (oṣadhi)—أولئك الماروت، أبناءُ پِرِشني (Pṛśni)، الذين يجعلون أنفسهم أمامنا وقايةً—فليُطلقونا من الشدّة.
