Rig Veda 7.7.6: Mandala 7, Sukta 7, Mantra 6

Sukta 7.7

Rishi: Vasiṣṭha (Vasiṣṭhāḥ)
Devata: Agni (implicit in the hymn-cycle; the inspired fires and mantra-forging powers serve Agni/ṛta)
Chandas: Triṣṭubh (likely; 7th maṇḍala Agni hymns predominantly Triṣṭubh—exact meter should be verified by pada syllable count)
Samhita Patha (Devanagari)

एते द्युम्नेभिर्विश्वमातिरन्त मन्त्रं ये वारं नर्या अतक्षन् । प्र ये विशस्तिरन्त श्रोषमाणा आ ये मे अस्य दीधयन्नृतस्य ॥

Transliteration

eté dyumnébhir víśvam ā́tiranta mántraṃ yé vā́raṃ naryā́ atá kṣan | prá yé víśas tiránta śróṣamāṇā ā́ yé me asyá dī́dhayann ṛtásya ||

Translation

આઓ તેજસ્વી શક્તિઓથી સર્વને વટાવીને સર્વત્ર વ્યાપી ગયા—જેઓએ ઇચ્છનીય, પુરુષાર્થભર્યા પરિપૂર્ણ રૂપે મંત્રવાણી (વચન)ને ઘડી. જેઓ સાંભળતા-સાંભળતા પ્રજાઓને આગળ ધપાવે છે—તેઓએ મારા અંદર આ ઋતની દૃષ્ટિને પ્રજ્વલિત કરી છે.
