Rig Veda 5.86.6: Mandala 5, Sukta 86, Mantra 6

Sukta 5.86

Rishi: Atri (Ātreya) (Indrāgnī hymns in Maṇḍala 5 are within Atri collection)
Devata: Indra-Agni (dual)
Chandas: Jagati (likely; long cadence and repeated pāda suggest jagatī—needs syllable verification)

एवेन्द्राग्निभ्यामहावि हव्यं शूष्यं घृतं न पूतमद्रिभिः । ता सूरिषु श्रवो बृहद्रयिं गृणत्सु दिधृतमिषं गृणत्सु दिधृतम् ॥

Sanskrit recitationRig Veda 5.86.6

evéndrāgní-bhyām áhāvi havyaṃ śū́ṣyaṃ ghṛtáṃ na pūtám ádri-bhiḥ | tā sūríṣu śrávo bṛhád rayíṃ gṛṇát-su didhṛtám íṣaṃ gṛṇát-su didhṛtám ||

இவ்வாறு இந்திரா–அக்னிக்காக ஹவி ஊற்றப்பட்டது—அத்ரி (அழுத்துக் கற்கள்) மூலம் தூய்மையாக்கப்பட்ட நெய் போல, முதிர்ந்து கனியும் வல்லமை. அவர்கள் இருவரும் சூரிஷு (ஒளிமிக்க தலைவர்கள்) நடுவே பெரும் ஷ்ரவஸ் (புகழ்) மற்றும் ரயி (செல்வ-வள) நிறுவட்டும்; பாடுவோரிடத்தில் ஊட்டத்தின் இஷ் (தூண்டுதல்-வேகம்) நிலைபெறச் செய்யட்டும்—பாடுவோரிடத்தில் அதை நிலைபெறச் செய்யட்டும்.
