Sukta 12
ए॒षाम॒हं स॒मासी॑नानां॒ वर्चो॑ वि॒ज्ञान॒मा द॑दे । अ॒स्याः सर्व॑स्याः सं॒सदो॒ मामि॑न्द्र भ॒गिनं॑ कृणु
eṣā́m aháṃ samā́sīnānāṃ várco vijñā́nam ā́ dadé | asyā́ḥ sárvasyāḥ saṃsádo mā́m índra bháginam kṛṇu
Of these who sit together I take unto myself the splendour and the discerning wit. Of this whole session, O Indra, make me a sharer in the portion—yea, a partner in its fortune.
जो लोग यहाँ बैठे हैं, उनकी समझ और चमक मुझे भी मिले। इंद्र, पूरी सभा में मुझे भी हिस्सा दे। मुझे भी इसके फल में शामिल कर।
