Rig Veda 10.35.2Mandala 10, Sukta 35, Mantra 2

Sukta 10.35

Rishi: Unknown/varied attributions in tradition for RV 10.35; commonly associated with dawn/fire imagery (check specific Anukramaṇī for exact seer)
Devata: Composite invocation: Dyāvā-Pṛthivī, Sūrya, Uṣas, Soma (with an underlying prayer for auspiciousness/protection)
Chandas: Jagatī (probable; RV 10.35 is commonly in Jagatī with recurring refrain patterns in later verses)

दिवस्पृथिव्योरव आ वृणीमहे मातॄन्त्सिन्धून्पर्वताञ्छर्यणावतः । अनागास्त्वं सूर्यमुषासमीमहे भद्रं सोमः सुवानो अद्या कृणोतु नः ॥

divás pṛthivyór áva ā́ vṛṇīmahe mātṝ́n sindhū́n párvatāñ char-yaṇā́vataḥ | anāgā́s tváṁ sū́ryam uṣā́sām īmahe bhadráṁ sómaḥ suvānáḥ adyā́ kṛṇotu naḥ ||

Du Ciel et de la Terre nous choisissons pour nous la protection salvatrice; nous appelons aussi les Mères nourricières — les Fleuves et les Montagnes fermes, riches de mouvement et de vigueur. Ô l’Irréprochable, nous invoquons le Soleil et Uṣas au-dedans de nous; que Soma, pressé aujourd’hui, nous fasse le Bien — une part propice.
