Mantra 20
Sukta 7
उज्जिहीध्वे स्तनयत्यभिक्रन्दत्योषधीः । यदा वः पृश्निमातरः पर्जन्यो रेतसावति
új jihīdhve stanáyaty abhikrאַנד́aty oṣadhī́ḥ | yadā́ vaḥ pṛ́śni-mātaraḥ párjanyo rétasā́vati
Start forth, O Herbs, when it thunders, when it roars aloud over you—when Parjanya, for you whose mothers are the speckled one, waters with seed.
हे औषधियो, जब गर्जना होती है, जब वह (मेघ) तुम पर ऊँचे स्वर से नाद करता है—तब उठ खड़ी होओ, जागो। जब पृश्नि-माता वाली तुम पर पर्जन्य रेतस् (बीज-रस) से सिंचन करता है।
Rishi: Atharvanic tradition (ṛṣi attribution varies by anukramaṇī).
Devata: Parjanya and the Oṣadhis (Herbs).
Chandas: Predominantly anuṣṭubh-like.
