Sukta 14
स्व॑१र्यन्तो॒ नापे॑क्षन्त॒ आ द्यां रो॑हन्ति॒ रोद॑सी । य॒ज्ञं ये वि॒श्वतो॑धारं॒ सुवि॑द्वांसो वितेनि॒रे
svàr-yántaḥ ná́pekṣante ā́ dyā́m róhanti ródasī | yajñáṃ yé viśvátodhāraṃ su-vidvā́ṃso viténire
Heaven-ward they go, and look not back: they climb unto the sky, the Two Worlds. They who, right-knowing, have stretched the Sacrifice, upheld on every side.
স্বঃ-অভিমুখে যেতে যেতে তারা পেছনে তাকায় না; তারা দ্যৌঃ-এ, দুই লোক (রোদসী)-তে আরোহন করে। যারা সর্বদিকে-ধারিত, চারদিক থেকে সমর্থিত যজ্ঞকে যথার্থ জ্ঞানে প্রসারিত করেছে।
