6.125.1
vánaspate vīḍvàṅgo hí bhūyā́ asmátsakhā pratáraṇaḥ suvī́raḥ |
góbhiḥ sáṃnaddho asi vīḍáyasvāsthātā́ te jayatu jétvāni ||1||
O forest-tree! stout-limbed verily mayest thou become, our companion, furtherer, rich in heroes; thou art fastened together with kine; be thou stout; let him who mounts thee conquer things conquerable.
6.125.2
divás pr̥thivyā́ḥ páry ója údbhr̥taṃ vánaspátibhyaḥ páry ā́bhr̥taṃ sáhaḥ |
apā́m ojmā́naṃ pári góbhir ā́vr̥tam indrasya vájraṃ haviṣā ráthaṃ yaja ||2||
Forth from heaven, from earth [is its] force brought up; forth from forest-trees [is its] power brought hither; to the force of the waters, brought forth hither by the kine, to Indra's thunderbolt, the chariot, do thou sacrifice with oblation.
6.125.3
índrasyáujo marútām ánīkaṃ mitrásya gárbho váruṇasya nā́bhiḥ |
sá imā́ṃ no havyádātiṃ juṣāṇó déva ratha práti havyā́ gr̥bhāya ||3||
Indra's force, the Maruts' front (ánīka), Mitra's embryo, Varuṇa's navel—do thou, enjoying this oblation-giving of ours, O divine chariot, accept the oblations.
