Rishi: Atharvanic tradition (not specified in the provided excerpt)
Devata: Indra (with Agni, Soma, and Yajña personified as victorious powers)
Chandas: Mixed/Anuṣṭubh-like cadence (probable)
这首三颂的阿闼婆那系赞歌,是一则简练的胜利护符:它将武功之成圣化,宣告“胜利”乃英雄、祭祀以及诸首要祭力——火神阿耆尼、苏摩与因陀罗——的内在德性。它增益刹帝利之力(王权/战士之威势),使盟友系属于领袖,并以吉祥的甘美与如法的供献驱逐尼利提(厄运/毁灭),乃至涤除既作之过恶所染的污秽。
Mantra 1
अभिभूर्वीरः अ॒भि॒भूर्य॒ज्ञो अ॑भि॒भूर॒ग्निर॑भि॒भूः सोमो॑ अभि॒भूरिन्द्रः॑ । अ॒भ्य॑हं विश्वाः॒ पृत॑ना॒ यथासा॑न्ये॒वा वि॑धेमा॒ग्निहो॑त्रा इ॒दं ह॒विः
英雄得胜;祭祀得胜;阿耆尼(Agni)得胜;苏摩(Soma)得胜;因陀罗(Indra)得胜。愿我在一切战阵中亦得胜;如此,愿我们如法奉行阿耆尼霍特罗(Agnihotra):此为供献之物。
Mantra 2
स्व॒धास्तु॑ मित्रावरुणा विपश्चिता प्र॒जाव॑त् क्ष॒त्रं मधु॑ने॒ह पि॑न्वतम्। बाधे॑थां दू॒रं निरृ॑तिं परा॒चैः कृ॒तं चि॒देनः॒ प्र मु॑मुक्तम॒स्मत्
愿svadhā与汝同在,密多罗与伐楼那(Mitra-Varuṇa),二位明智者;以甘美之力,使此处的王权兴盛,子嗣繁衍。请将尼利提(Nirṛti,败厄)驱逐到远方,向后退去;即便已作之罪,亦请为我们解脱、释放。
Mantra 3
इ॒मं वी॒रमनु॑ हर्षध्वमु॒ग्रमिन्द्रं॑ सखायो॒ अनु॒ सं र॑भध्वम्। ग्रा॒म॒जितं॑ गो॒जितं॒ वज्र॑बाहुं॒ जय॑न्त॒मज्म॑ प्रमृ॒णन्त॒मोज॑सा
你们当随此英雄而欢腾;朋友们,追随这位威猛的因陀罗(Indra),并一同上前把握住他——夺取村落者、夺取牛群者、执金刚之臂者——在战阵中得胜,以威力击倒敌人。
It is used to secure victory and dominance in conflicts, strengthen royal/warrior power (kṣātra), and protect the group by driving away misfortune (Nirṛti) and loosening the burden of guilt (enaḥ).
Because the hymn treats victory as a force rooted in correct ritual performance: when the sacrifice and its powers are ‘overcoming,’ the patron who offers and prays becomes ‘overcoming’ in battle and competition as well.
Traditionally it is paired with a simple oblation (havis) into fire; honey (madhu) is an auspicious addition for ‘sweetening’ kṣātra. For plain recitation, focused intent and respectful cleanliness are emphasized.
