Sukta 105

Sanskrit (Devanagari)

इत ऊती वो अजरं प्रहेतारमप्रहितम्। आशुं जेतारं हेतारं रथीतममतूर्तं तुग्र्यावृधम्

IAST Transliteration

itá ūtí vo ajáraṃ prahétāram áprāhitaṃ | āśúṃ jétāraṃ hétāraṃ rathītamáṃ amátūrtaṃ tugryā́vṛdham

English Translation (Griffith/Whitney)

Hence be for you an aid that ages not—an unrepelled impeller; the swift conqueror, the smiter, the best of charioteers, the unconquered, the increaser of Tugrya.

Translation

ଏଠାରୁ ତୁମମାନଙ୍କ ପାଇଁ ଏକ ସାହାଯ୍ୟ ହେଉ—ଯାହା କେବେ ଜରାଗ୍ରସ୍ତ ହୁଏନାହିଁ; ଅପ୍ରତିହତ ପ୍ରେରକ। ସେ ଦ୍ରୁତ ବିଜେତା, ପ୍ରହାରକ, ରଥୀମାନଙ୍କ ମଧ୍ୟରେ ଶ୍ରେଷ୍ଠ, ଅଜେୟ, ଏବଂ ତୁଗ୍ର୍ୟାଙ୍କ ବୃଦ୍ଧିକାରକ।
