Mantra 4

Sukta 94

Sanskrit (Devanagari)

एवा पतिं द्रोणसाचं सचेतसमूर्ज स्कम्भं धरुण आ वृषायसे । ओजः कृष्व सं गृभाय त्वे अप्यसो यथा केनिपानामिनो वृधे

IAST Transliteration

evá pátiṃ droṇasā́caṃ sacétasam ūrjáḥ skámbhaṃ dháruṇam ā́ vṛṣāyase | ójaḥ kṛṣva sáṃ gṛbhāya tvé ápyaso yáthā kenipā́nām ínaḥ vṛ́dhe |

English Translation (Griffith/Whitney)

Thus the lord, seated at the trough, of one accord, the prop and bearer of nourishment—hither thou waxest. Make vigor; grasp it wholly in thee, O rich in sap, that the strong impeller may be for the increase of the drinkers.

Translation

Như vậy, vị Chúa—ngồi nơi máng (drona), đồng tâm đồng trí—là cột chống và kẻ nâng đỡ của dưỡng lực, đang lớn lên hướng về đây. Hãy tạo nên ojas (sinh lực), và nắm giữ trọn vẹn nó trong chính ngài, hỡi đấng giàu nhựa sống; để sức thúc đẩy mạnh mẽ ấy trở thành sự tăng trưởng cho những người uống.
