Rig Veda 1.52.3: Mandala 1, Sukta 52, Mantra 3

Sukta 1.52

Rishi: Vasiṣṭha
Devata: Indra
Chandas: Triṣṭubh
Samhita Patha (Devanagari)

स हि द्वरो द्वरिषु वव्र ऊधनि चन्द्रबुध्नो मदवृद्धो मनीषिभिः । इन्द्रं तमह्वे स्वपस्यया धिया मंहिष्ठरातिं स हि पप्रिरन्धसः ॥

Transliteration

sá hí dvaró dvaríṣu vavrá ū́dhani candrábudhno mádavṛddho manīṣíbhīḥ | índraṃ tám ahve svapasyáyā dhiyā́ maṃhíṣṭharātiṃ sá hí paprír ándhasaḥ ||

Translation

Kerana dialah pembuka pintu-pintu; pada ambang-ambang ia menjadi penutup yang menahan khazanah di dalam ambing; beralas bulan, bertambah oleh ekstasi melalui fikiran para resi. Indra itulah yang aku seru dengan kehendak kerja yang benar dan budi yang bercahaya—dia yang paling murah kurnia, kerana dia penuh dengan Soma.
