Sukta 10
आ मा॑ पु॒ष्टे च॒ पोषे॑ च॒ रात्रि॑ दे॒वानां॑ सुम॒तौ स्या॑म । पू॒र्णा द॑र्वे॒ परा॑ पत॒ सुपू॑र्णा॒ पुन॒रा प॑त । सर्वान् य॒ज्ञान्त्सं॑भुञ्ज॒तीषमूर्जं॑ न॒ आ भ॑र
ā́ mā puṣṭé ca póṣe ca rā́tri devā́nāṃ sumatáu syā́ma | pūrṇā́ darve párā pata supū́rṇā púnar ā́ pata | sárvān yajñā́n sáṃ bhuñjatī́ íṣam ū́rjaṃ na ā́ bhara
Hither, for me, O Nourishment, and in thriving too; O Night, in the Gods’ good favour may we abide. Full, O Ladle, fly thou forth; well-filled return thou hither again. Enjoying wholly all sacrifices, bring thou to us refreshment and sustaining strength.
हे पोषण करने वाली, मेरे पास आ। मेरी तरक्की कर। हे रात, हम देवियों की अच्छी नज़र में रहें। यह चम्मच भर के ऊपर जाए, फिर वापस आए। सारी पूजा का भोग लगा के हमें ताकत और ऊर्जा ला के दे।
