10.149.1
sa̱vi̱tā ya̱ntraiḥ pṛ̍thi̱vīm a̍ramṇād askambha̱ne sa̍vi̱tā dyām a̍dṛṁhat |
aśva̍m ivādhukṣa̱d dhuni̍m a̱ntari̍kṣam a̱tūrte̍ ba̱ddhaṁ sa̍vi̱tā sa̍mu̱dram ||
SAVITAR fixed the earth with bands to bind it, and made heaven stedfast where no prop supported. Savitar milked, as 'twere a restless courser, air, sea bound fast to what no foot had trodden.
10.149.2
yatrā̍ samu̱draḥ ska̍bhi̱to vy auna̱d apā̍ṁ napāt savi̱tā tasya̍ veda |
ato̱ bhūr ata̍ ā̱ utthi̍ta̱ṁ rajo 'to̱ dyāvā̍pṛthi̱vī a̍prathetām ||
Well knoweth Savitar, O Child of Waters, where ocean, firmly fixt, o'erflowed its limit. Thence sprang the world, from that uprose the region: thence heaven spread out and the wide earth expanded.
10.149.3
pa̱ścedam a̱nyad a̍bhava̱d yaja̍tra̱m ama̍rtyasya̱ bhuva̍nasya bhū̱nā |
su̱pa̱rṇo a̱ṅga sa̍vi̱tur ga̱rutmā̱n pūrvo̍ jā̱taḥ sa u̍ a̱syānu̱ dharma̍ ||
Then, with a full crowd of Immortal Beings, this other realm came later, high and holy. First, verily, Savitar's strong-pinioned Eagle was born: and he obeys his law for ever.
10.149.4
gāva̍ iva̱ grāma̱ṁ yūyu̍dhir i̱vāśvā̍n vā̱śreva̍ va̱tsaṁ su̱manā̱ duhā̍nā |
pati̍r iva jā̱yām a̱bhi no̱ ny e̍tu dha̱rtā di̱vaḥ sa̍vi̱tā vi̱śvavā̍raḥ ||
As warriors to their steeds, kine to their village, as fond milk giving cows approach their youngling, As man to wife, let Savitar come downward to us, heaven's bearer, Lord of every blessing.
10.149.5
hira̍ṇyastūpaḥ savita̱r yathā̍ tvāṅgira̱so ju̱hve vāje̍ a̱smin |
e̱vā tvārca̱nn ava̍se̱ vanda̍māna̱ḥ soma̍syevā̱ṁśum prati̍ jāgarā̱ham ||
Like the Ângirasa Hiraṇyastûpa, I call thee, Savitar, to this achievement: So worshipping and lauding thee for favour I watch for thee as for the stalk of Soma.
