Sukta 5.36

Rishi: Atri (Ātreya) (book 5 Atri corpus; verify exact rishi for RV 5.36 via Anukramaṇī)

Samhita Patha (Devanagari)

वृषा त्वा वृषणं वर्धतु द्यौर्वृषा वृषभ्यां वहसे हरिभ्याम् । स नो वृषा वृषरथः सुशिप्र वृषक्रतो वृषा वज्रिन्भरे धाः ॥

Transliteration

vṛ́ṣā tvā vṛ́ṣaṇaṃ vardhatu dyáur vṛ́ṣā vṛ́ṣabhyāṃ vahase háribhyām | sá no vṛ́ṣā vṛ́ṣa-rathaḥ su-śipra vṛ́ṣa-krato vṛ́ṣā vajrin bháre dhāḥ ||

Translation

Que le Ciel lumineux, force de Taureau, t’accroisse, toi, Taureau de puissance, par une vigueur taurine. En Taureau tu es porté par les deux coursiers taurins, les fauves Haris. Ainsi, Taureau au char de Taureau, aux belles lèvres, Taureau par la volonté et l’acte, ô Vajrin (porteur du Vajra), établis pour nous, dans la bataille, la plénitude de l’abondance.
