Sukta 78
वन्दमोचनम्। वि ते मुञ्चामि रशनां वि योक्त्रं वि नियोजनम्। इहैव त्वमजस्र एध्यग्ने
vanda-mocánam | ví te muñcāmi raśanā́m ví yoktrám ví niyójanam | iháiva tvám ájasra édhy agne ||
Release from bondage. I loosen apart for thee the cord, apart the yoke-thong, apart the fastening-on. Here, even here, do thou, unceasing, wax strong, O Agni.
बंधन-मोचन। मैं तेरे लिए रज्जु को अलग कर ढीला करता हूँ, जुए की डोरी को अलग, और बाँधने के बंधन को अलग। यहीं, इसी स्थान पर, हे अग्नि, तू अविराम दृढ़ और प्रबल हो।
Rishi: Atharvanic tradition (not specified in the excerpt).
Devata: Agni (as purifier and stabilizer of the release).
Chandas: Mixed/prose-rubric + metrical line; likely Anuṣṭubh-like cadence in the metrical portion (requires metrical check).
