Sanskrit recitationRig Veda 3.2.1
Transliteration

vaiśvānará̄ya dhiṣáṇām ṛtā-vṛ́dhe ghṛtáṁ na pūtám agnáye janāmasi | dvitā́ hótāraṁ mánuṣaś ca vā́ghato dhiyā́ ráthaṁ na kúliśaḥ sám ṛṇvati ||

Translation

વૈશ્વાનર માટે—ઋત (સત્ય)માં વૃદ્ધિ પામતી ધિષણા વધારનાર અગ્નિ માટે—અમે શુદ્ધ ઘૃત સમાન પરિશુદ્ધ હવ્ય ઉત્પન્ન કરીએ છીએ. માનવ ઉપાસક દ્વિતીયવાર હોતાને ઘડે છે; જેમ ધિયા દ્વારા રથ ઘડાય, તેમ લોહાર હથોડાથી તેને સંયોજે છે.
