Adhyaya 15 Mantra 24 - Shukla Yajurveda | Arabic | Vedapath

Various Rishis

Shukla Yajur Veda — Adhyaya 15, Mantra 24

Rishi: Traditionally ascribed within Agni-hymn lineages (Āṅgirasa/Bhṛgu associations are prominent in this cluster); Śukla-Yajurveda transmission often leaves ṛṣi implicit for borrowed Ṛgvedic material

Devata: Agni (with Uṣas as the correlated cosmic partner in the imagery)

Chandas: Triṣṭubh (by structure and cadence typical of RV-style triṣṭubh)

Samhita Patha (Devanagari)

अबो॑ध्य॒ग्निः स॒मिधा॒ जना॑नां॒ प्रति॑ धे॒नुमि॑वाय॒तीमु॒षास॑म् । य॒ह्वा इव॒ प्र व॒यामु॒ज्जिहा॑ना॒: प्र भा॒नव॑: सिस्रते॒ नाक॒मच्छ॑

Transliteration

ābó̄dhyāgníḥ samídhā́ janā́nām práti dhénum ivāyātím uṣā́sām | yahvā́ iva prá vayā́m ujjíhānāḥ prá bhā́navaḥ sisrate nā́kam áccha

Translation

قَدِ اسْتَيْقَظَ أَغْنِي بِحَطَبِ النَّاسِ، مُقْبِلًا لِلِقَاءِ أُوشَاسَ كَمَنْ يَلْقَى بَقَرَةً حَلُوبًا. وَكَالجِيَادِ المُتَشَوِّقَةِ، مُبْرِزًا أَلْسِنَتَهُ، تَنْسَابُ أَشِعَّتُهُ وَتَسْرَعُ نَحْوَ قُبَّةِ السَّمَاءِ.
