Sukta 89

Sanskrit (Devanagari)

शोचयामसि ते हार्दिं शोचयामसि ते मनः । वातं धूम इव सध्र्य१ङ्मामेवान्वेतु ते मनः

IAST Transliteration

śocayāmasi te hārdíṁ śocayāmasi te mánaḥ | vā́taṁ dhūmá iva sadhryàṅ mā́m evā́nv etu te mánaḥ ||

English Translation (Griffith/Whitney)

We cause thy heart’s distress to waste away; we cause thy mind’s distress to waste away. As smoke goes with the wind straight onward, so—yea, to me—let thy mind follow.

Translation

我们使你心中的忧苦消散；我们使你意中的忧苦消散。正如烟随风直向前行，如是——诚然，愿你的心念随我而来。
