Rig Veda 6.3.8: Mandala 6, Sukta 3, Mantra 8

Sukta 6.3

Rishi: Bharadvāja (Bārhaspatya)
Devata: Agni (as lightning-like power and as artisan of the Marut energies)
Chandas: Trishtubh (probable)

धायोभिर्वा यो युज्येभिरर्कैर्विद्युन्न दविद्योत्स्वेभिः शुष्मैः । शर्धो वा यो मरुतां ततक्ष ऋभुर्न त्वेषो रभसानो अद्यौत् ॥

Recitation with translationRig Veda 6.3.8

dhāyóbhir vā yó yújyebhir arkáir vidyún na davidyót svébhīḥ śúṣmaiḥ | śárdho vā yó marútāṃ tatákṣa ṛbhúr na tvéṣo rabhasā́nó ádyaut ||

Czy to przez swoje podtrzymujące moce i zaprzężone hymny błyska jak błyskawica własnymi potęgami; czy też ukształtował zastęp Marutów - jak Rbhu, przenikliwy i szybki, rozbłysnął dzisiaj.
