Mantra 1
Sukta 11
संपत्कर्म। ६ पञ्चपदा अतिशक्वरी, ११ त्र्यवसाना षट्-पदा अत्यष्टिः। कथं महे असुरायाब्रवीरिह कथं पित्रे हरये त्वेषनृम्णः । पृश्निं वरुण दक्षिणां ददावान् पुनर्मघ त्वं मनसाचिकित्सीः
katháṃ mahé ásurāyābravīr ihá katháṃ pitré háraye tvéṣanṛmṇaḥ | pṛ́śniṃ váruṇa dákṣiṇāṃ dadāvā́n púnarmagha tváṃ mánasā cikitsīḥ ||
How spakest thou here unto the Great Asura? how unto the Father, unto Hari of vehement might? Varuṇa, having bestowed Pṛśni as the priestly fee, thou, O ever-bounteous, didst with mind discern the course.
ਇੱਥੇ ਤੂੰ ਮਹਾਨ ਅਸੁਰ ਨੂੰ ਕਿਵੇਂ ਬੋਲਿਆ? ਅਤੇ ਪਿਤਾ ਨੂੰ—ਉਗ੍ਰ ਬਲ ਵਾਲੇ ਹਰਿ (ਹਰਯੇ) ਨੂੰ—ਕਿਵੇਂ? ਹੇ ਵਰੁਣ, ਦਕਸ਼ਿਣਾ ਵਜੋਂ ਪૃਸ਼ਨੀ ਨੂੰ ਦੇ ਕੇ, ਹੇ ਪੁਨਰਮਘ (ਸਦਾ ਦਾਨਸ਼ੀਲ), ਤੂੰ ਮਨ ਨਾਲ ਮੁੜ ਉਸ ਰਾਹ/ਕ੍ਰਮ ਨੂੰ ਸਮਝ ਲਿਆ।
