Sukta 8.86

Rishi: Viśvaka
Devata: Aśvinau (Dasrā, Bhiṣajā, Mayobhūvā)
Chandas: Jagatī (12-syllable cadence typical for longer pādas; refrain-like closing)

उभा हि दस्रा भिषजा मयोभुवोभा दक्षस्य वचसो बभूवथुः । ता वां विश्वको हवते तनूकृथे मा नो वि यौष्टं सख्या मुमोचतम् ॥

ubhā́ hí dasrā́ bhiṣájā mayobhúvobhā́ dákṣasya vácaso babhū́vathuḥ | tā́ vāṃ víśvako hávate tanū-kṛ́the mā́ no ví yauṣṭaṃ sakhyā́ mumócatam ||

ನೀವು ಇಬ್ಬರೂ ದಸ್ರಾ—ಅದ್ಭುತರು; ನೀವು ಇಬ್ಬರೂ ಭಿಷಜಾ—ವೈದ್ಯರು; ನೀವು ಇಬ್ಬರೂ ಮಯೋಭುವಃ—ಆನಂದದಾತರು; ಮತ್ತು ನೀವು ಇಬ್ಬರೂ ದಕ್ಷ (ಕೌಶಲ್ಯ) ಹಾಗೂ ವಚಸ್ (ಪ್ರೇರಿತ ವಾಣಿ)ಗಳ ಶಕ್ತಿಗಳಾಗಿ ಆಗಿದ್ದೀರಿ. ಆದ್ದರಿಂದ ವಿಶ್ವಕನು ತನುಕೃಥೇ—ದೇಹರೂಪಣ/ದೇಹಘಟನಕ್ಕಾಗಿ ನಿಮ್ಮನ್ನು ಕರೆಯುತ್ತಾನೆ: ನಮ್ಮನ್ನು ಬೇರ್ಪಡಿಸಬೇಡಿ; ಸ್ನೇಹಬಂಧವನ್ನು ಸಡಿಲಿಸಬೇಡಿ; ನಮ್ಮನ್ನು ಬಿಡಬೇಡಿ.
