Sukta 1.138

Devata: Pūṣan

प्र हि त्वा पूषन्नजिरं न यामनि स्तोमेभिः कृण्व ऋणवो यथा मृध उष्ट्रो न पीपरो मृधः । हुवे यत्त्वा मयोभुवं देवं सख्याय मर्त्यः । अस्माकमाङ्गूषान्द्युम्निनस्कृधि वाजेषु द्युम्निनस्कृधि ॥

prá hí tvā pūṣann ajiráṃ ná yā́mani stómebhíḥ kṛṇvé ṛṇávo yáthā mṛ́dha uṣṭró ná pī́paro mṛ́dhaḥ | huvè yát tvā mayó-bhuvaṃ deváṃ sakhyā́ya mártyaḥ | asmā́kam āṅgūṣā́n dyumnínaḥ kṛdhi vā́jeṣu dyumnínaḥ kṛdhi ||

હે પૂષણ, માર્ગમાં ઝડપી, હું તને સ્તોત્રોથી ઘડું છું—જેમ કોઈ શત્રુતા સામે દેવાનારને તૈયાર કરે; જેમ ઊંટ શત્રુતા સામે ભાર વહન કરે. હું તને, આનંદદાયિ દેવને, મિત્રતા માટે—મર્ત્ય બનીને—આહ્વાન કરું છું. અમારા આંગૂષ (પ્રેરિત વાણી)ને દ્યુમ્નવંત (પ્રકાશમાન) કર; વાજોમાં પણ દ્યુમ્નવંત કર.
