Sukta 6

Sanskrit (Devanagari)

उत्तरं द्विषतो मामयं मणिः कृणोतु देवजाः । यस्य लोका इमे त्रयः पयो दुग्धमुपासते । स मायमधि रोहतु मणिः श्रैष्ठ्याय मूर्धतः

IAST Transliteration

úttaraṃ dviṣatáḥ mām ayáṃ maṇíḥ kṛṇotu devá-jāḥ | yásya lokā́ imé tráyaḥ páyo dúgdham upā́sate | sá māyám ádhi rohatú maṇíḥ śráiṣṭhyāya mū́rdhataḥ ||

English Translation (Griffith/Whitney)

Higher than the hater let this Jewel, God-born, make me. Whose are these three worlds that wait on him with milk, with draughts well-drawn—let that Jewel mount upon me, Māyā, for supremacy, upon my head.

Translation

愿这天生之宝珠（maṇi），使我高出憎我者之上。三界皆属彼者；诸世界以乳与善挤之饮奉事于他。愿此宝珠攀附于我——于玛雅（Māyā）之上——为求至上之权，安置在我头顶。
