Rig Veda 6.61.2: Mandala 6, Sukta 61, Mantra 2

Sukta 6.61

Rishi: Bharadvāja (Bārhaspatya) tradition
Devata: Sarasvatī
Chandas: Trishtubh (probable)

इयं शुष्मेभिर्बिसखा इवारुजत्सानु गिरीणां तविषेभिरूर्मिभिः । पारावतघ्नीमवसे सुवृक्तिभिः सरस्वतीमा विवासेम धीतिभिः ॥

iyaṃ śuṣmebhir bisakhāḥ-ivārujat sānu girīṇāṃ taviṣebhir ūrmi-bhiḥ | pārāvata-ghnīm avase suvṛkti-bhiḥ sarasvatīm ā vivāsema dhīti-bhiḥ ||

Ela, com suas forças, irrompeu como quem rasga hastes de lótus; com suas ondas possantes rompeu as cristas das montanhas. A que abate o «distante» — a treva que afasta — para nosso amparo: com boas palavras e com pensamentos inspirados (dhī) queremos chamar Sarasvatī para perto e fazê-la habitar entre nós.
