Rig Veda 1.142.12: Mandala 1, Sukta 142, Mantra 12

Sukta 1.142

Rishi: Dīrghatamas Āucathya (traditional for this adjoining Agni hymn cluster; attribution may vary by tradition)

Devata: Multiple (Pūṣan, Maruts, Viśve Devāḥ, Vāyu; oblation ultimately for Indra)

Chandas: Likely Jagatī/Triṣṭubh-contextual; contains a Gayatrī-reference (gāyatra-vepase) rather than necessarily the meter itself

Samhita Patha (Devanagari)

पूषण्वते मरुत्वते विश्वदेवाय वायवे । स्वाहा गायत्रवेपसे हव्यमिन्द्राय कर्तन ॥

Transliteration

pūṣaṇvate marutvate viśvadevāya vāyave | svāhā gāyatravepase havyam indrāya kartana ||

Translation

En el clamor ascendente, ofreced la oblación a Pūṣan el Nutritor, a la fuerza de los Marut, a los Todos-los-Dioses y a Vāyu, el aliento de vida. Con el grito consagrante «svāhā», dad forma a la ofrenda para Indra, señor del poder luminoso, mediante el impulso vibrante del Gāyatrī.
