Sukta 29
ओष॑ दर्भ स॒पत्ना॑न् मे॒ ओष॑ मे पृतनाय॒तः । ओष॑ मे॒ सर्वा॑न् दु॒र्हार्दो॑ ओष॑ मे द्विष॒तो म॑णे
óṣa darbha sapatnān me óṣa me pṛtanāyatáḥ | óṣa me sárvān durhā́rdaḥ óṣa me dviṣatá maṇe ||
Burn thou away, O Darbha, mine adversaries; burn away for me the battle-rushers. Burn away for me all the evil-hearted; burn away for me the haters, O Amulet.
हे दर्भ, मेरे दुश्मनों को जला दे। जो लड़ने आते हैं उनको भी जला दे। सारे बड़े दिल वाले लोगों को जला दे। मेरे दुश्मनों को जला दे, हे मणि।
