Sanskrit recitationRig Veda 4.36.6
Transliteration

sá vājý arvā́ sá ṛ́ṣir vacasyáyā sá śū́ro ástā pṛ́tanāsu dúṣṭaraḥ | sá rāyás póṣaṃ sá su-vī́ryaṃ dadhē yáṃ vājó víbhvāṃ ṛbhávo yám ā́viṣuḥ ||

Translation

Él llega a ser portador del Vāja, la plenitud, corcel veloz; llega a ser ṛṣi por el poder de la palabra inspirada; llega a ser héroe, combatiente difícil de vencer en las batallas. Él sostiene el aumento del rāyas (riqueza) y la verdadera vīrya, la fuerza heroica: aquel a quien Vāja y los Ṛbhus, los que todo lo abarcan, han hecho manifiesto.
