Adhyaya 29 Mantra 49 - Shukla Yajurveda | Malayalam | Vedapath

Various Rishis

Mantra 49

Rishi: Traditionally attributed within the royal/protective mantra strata (Anukramaṇī attribution varies; often treated as ‘yājñika’/ritual corpus rather than a single ṛṣi)

Devata: Soma and Aditi (with an initial protective epithet ‘Ṛjīta’ functioning as guardian-invocation)

Chandas: Mixed; pragmatically used as a protective yajus-formula (not strictly metrical like Ṛgvedic verses)

Samhita Patha (Devanagari)

ऋजी॑ते॒ परि॑ वृङ्धि॒ नोऽश्मा॑ भवतु नस्त॒नूः । सोमो॒ अधि॑ ब्रवीतु॒ नोऽदि॑ति॒: शर्म॑ यच्छतु

Transliteration

ṛ́jīte pári vṛṅdhi no’śmā́ bhavatu nas tanū́ḥ | sómo ádhi bravītu no’dítiḥ śárma yacchatu

Translation

ഹേ ഋജീതേ (നേരെ പോകുന്നവനേ), ഞങ്ങളെ ചുറ്റി പൊതിഞ്ഞ് വർദ്ധിപ്പിക്കേണമേ; കല്ലുമതിലുപോലെ സംരക്ഷണം ഞങ്ങളുടെ തനു (ദേഹം) ആകട്ടെ. സോമൻ ഞങ്ങളുടെ പക്ഷത്തിൽ വാക്ക് പറയട്ടെ; അദിതി ഞങ്ങൾക്ക് ശർമ (ആശ്രയം/ശാന്തി) നൽകട്ടെ.
