Sukta 134
Sukta 1.134
Gautama Rāhūgaṇa (traditional for RV 1.134)
Vāyu
Jagatī (probable; extended lines typical of Vāyu hymns here)
Is mantra mein Vayu ko bulaya ja raha hai. Wo hawa ka devta hai jo bahut tez chalta hai. Use Soma banane ke pehle aane ko kehte hain. Wo pehla peena le aur upar uthi hui sachai laye. Uski shakti din ki roshni kholti hai. Wo khushali deti hai jaise gaay doodh deti hai. Isse puja mein sahi dimag aur saans dono mil jate hain.
Mantras
Mantra 1
आ त्वा जुवो रारहाणा अभि प्रयो वायो वहन्त्विह पूर्वपीतये सोमस्य पूर्वपीतये । ऊर्ध्वा ते अनु सूनृता मनस्तिष्ठतु जानती । नियुत्वता रथेना याहि दावने वायो मखस्य दावने ॥
Vayu bhagwan ke liye yeh pukar hai. Tej hawa jaldi se aao, Soma peene ka time ho gaya hai. Pehla pyaala tumhare liye rakha hai. Sachchai tumhare saath chale, dimaag saaf rahe. Apni rath mein ghode jod ke aao, yeh puja ke liye hai, bhagwan ke liye dena hai.
Mantra 3
वायुर्युङ्क्ते रोहिता वायुररुणा वायू रथे अजिरा धुरि वोळ्हवे वहिष्ठा धुरि वोळ्हवे । प्र बोधया पुरंधिं जार आ ससतीमिव । प्र चक्षय रोदसी वासयोषसः श्रवसे वासयोषसः ॥
Vayu laal ghode jodta hai, aur peele bhi. Unka rath bahut tej hai, sabse accha hai. Jaise koi apne pyare ko jagata hai, waise hi is jagah ko jaga do. Aasman aur dharti ko khula kar do, savere ki roshni laye.
Mantra 4
तुभ्यमुषासः शुचयः परावति भद्रा वस्त्रा तन्वते दंसु रश्मिषु चित्रा नव्येषु रश्मिषु । तुभ्यं धेनुः सबर्दुघा विश्वा वसूनि दोहते । अजनयो मरुतो वक्षणाभ्यो दिव आ वक्षणाभ्यः ॥
Tumhare liye savere ki roshni aati hai, door se. Woh chamakdar kapde bana rahi hai, nayi kiran mein. Tumhare liye gaay doodh deti hai, sab kuchh deti hai. Tumne Marut devtaon ko paida kiya, aasman se.
Mantra 5
तुभ्यं शुक्रासः शुचयस्तुरण्यवो मदेषूग्रा इषणन्त भुर्वण्यपामिषन्त भुर्वणि । त्वां त्सारी दसमानो भगमीट्टे तक्ववीये । त्वं विश्वस्माद्भुवनात्पासि धर्मणासुर्यात्पासि धर्मणा ॥
Tumhare liye chamakdar aur saaf log tezi se aate hain. Woh khushi mein magan hoke sab taraf failte hain, paani bhi uda dete hain. Jo dhundta hai woh dusre kadam par tumhe bhagwan maanta hai. Tum sab duniya ki hifazat karte ho, apne dharam se buri cheezon se bachate ho.
Mantra 6
त्वं नो वायवेषामपूर्व्यः सोमानां प्रथमः पीतिमर्हसि सुतानां पीतिमर्हसि । उतो विहुत्मतीनां विशां ववर्जुषीणाम् । विश्वा इत्ते धेनवो दुह्र आशिरं घृतं दुह्रत आशिरम् ॥
Vayu, tum sabse alag ho. Soma peene ka pehla haq tumhara hai, jo ras nikala hai uska pehla pyaala tumhara hai. Jo log sahi dharam pe chalte hain, unka bhi tumhare liye kuchh hai. Sab gaayen tumhe accha doodh deti hain, ghee jaisa saaf aur pavitra.
