Sukta 25

अश्वः। अश्रा॑न्तस्य त्वा॒ मन॑सा यु॒नज्मि॑ प्रथ॒मस्य॑ च । उत्कू॑लमुद्व॒हो भ॑वो॒दुह्य॒ प्रति॑ धावतात्

áśvaḥ | aśrā́ntasya tvā mánasā yunájmi prathamásya ca | utkū́lam udvahó bhava udúhyaḥ práti dhāvatāt

The Horse: Thee, of the unwearied, with mind I yoke, for foremost place as well. Become an up-bearer over the bank; fit to be drawn up—run thou forth in answer.

यह घोड़े की प्रेयर है। मैं तुम्हे सोच के कनेक्ट करता हूँ, थकने वाला नहीं हो, सबसे आगे रहो। तुम किनारे से ऊपर उठाओ, सही तरह खींचो, और पीछे से दौड़ के आओ।
