Rig Veda 3.1.2: Mandala 3, Sukta 1, Mantra 2
Sukta 3.1
प्राञ्चं यज्ञं चकृम वर्धतां गीः समिद्भिरग्निं नमसा दुवस्यन् । दिवः शशासुर्विदथा कवीनां गृत्साय चित्तवसे गातुमीषुः ॥
prā́ñcaṃ yajñáṃ cakṛma várdhatāṃ gī́ḥ samídbhīr agníṃ námasā duvasyán | diváḥ śaśāsur vidáthā kavīnā́ṃ gṛtsā́ya cit taváse gātúm ī́ṣuḥ ||
Vorwärts haben wir das Opfer in Gang gesetzt; wachsen möge das inspirierte Lied. Mit Anzündhölzern dienen wir Agni, in Ehrfurcht und Hingabe. Die Seher haben die Vidathas vom Himmel her eingesetzt; auch für den starken Gṛtsamada suchten sie einen Gang—einen Durchlass, damit die Kraft voranschreite.
