Sukta 36
ये दे॒वास्तेन॒ हास॑न्ते॒ सूर्ये॑ण मिमते ज॒वम्। न॒दीषु॒ पर्व॑तेषु॒ ये सं तैः प॒शुभि॑र्विदे
yé devā́s téna hā́sante sū́ryeṇa mimate javám | nadī́ṣu párvateṣu yé sáṁ táiḥ paśúbhir vidé ||
The Gods who therewith laugh loud in triumph, who with the Sun mete out and order speed—those that are in rivers, those on mountains—with those I win me cattle and living store.
ये देवास्तेन हासन्ते, सूर्येण मिमते जवं; नदीषु पर्वतेषु ये—तैः पशुभिर्हं विदे।
