Sukta 10.13

Devata: Indeterminate/Composite; verse speaks in a symbolic register of Father–Son powers with Marut-force; associated with Ṛta and dual principles

Samhita Patha (Devanagari)

सप्त क्षरन्ति शिशवे मरुत्वते पित्रे पुत्रासो अप्यवीवतन्नृतम् । उभे इदस्योभयस्य राजत उभे यतेते उभयस्य पुष्यतः ॥

Transliteration

saptá kṣáranti śíśave marútvate pitré putrā́so ápy avīvatan ṛtám | ubhé íd asyóbháyasya rājata ubhé yatete ubháyasya púṣyataḥ ||

Translation

Sept courants de force s’écoulent pour l’Enfant du devenir, pour le Père pourvu des Maruts ; et les fils aussi ont mis en marche et rendu efficace le Ṛta (ṛta), la Vérité‑Ordre. Les deux faces de sa nature double resplendissent ; toutes deux s’efforcent, et toutes deux sont nourries jusqu’à la plénitude.
