Sukta 29
ज॒हि द॑र्भ स॒पत्ना॑न् मे ज॒हि मे॑ पृतनाय॒तः । ज॒हि मे॒ सर्वा॑न् दु॒र्हार्दो॑ ज॒हि मे॑ द्विष॒तो म॑णे
jáhi darbha sapatnān me jáhi me pṛtanāyatáḥ | jáhi me sárvān durhā́rdaḥ jáhi me dviṣatá maṇe ||
Smite, O Darbha, mine adversaries; smite for me the battle-rushers. Smite for me all the evil-hearted; smite for me the haters, O Amulet.
दर्भ, मेरे दुश्मनों को मार डाल। जो लड़ने आते हैं उनको भी मार डाल। सारे बड़े दिल वाले लोगों को मार डाल। मेरे दुश्मनों को मार डाल, हे मणि।
