तं पृ॑च्छता॒ स ज॑गामा॒ स वे॑द॒ स चि॑कि॒त्वाँ ई॑यते॒ सा न्वी॑यते | तस्मि॑न् त्सन्ति प्र॒शिष॒स्तस्मि॑न्नि॒ष्टय॒: स वाज॑स्य॒ शव॑सः शु॒ष्मिण॒स्पति॑: ||
Ask ye of him for he is come, he knoweth it; he, full of wisdom, is implored, is now implored. With him are admonitions and with him commands: he is the Lord of Strength, the Lord of Power and Might.
1.145.2
तमित् पृ॑च्छन्ति॒ न सि॒मो वि पृ॑च्छति॒ स्वेने॑व॒ धीरो॒ मन॑सा॒ यदग्र॑भीत् | न मृ॑ष्यते प्रथ॒मं नाप॑रं॒ वचो॒ ऽस्य क्रत्वा॑ सचते॒ अप्र॑दृपितः ||
They ask of him: not all learn by their questioning what he, the Sage, hath grasped, as ’twere, with his own mind. Forgetting not the former nor the later word, he goeth on, not careless, in his mental power.
1.145.3
तमिद् ग॑च्छन्ति जु॒ह्व १स्तमर्व॑ती॒र्विश्वा॒न्येक॑: शृणव॒द् वचां॑सि मे | पु॒रु॒प्रै॒षस्ततु॑रिर्यज्ञ॒साध॒नो ऽच्छि॑द्रोति॒: शिशु॒राद॑त्त॒ सं रभ॑: ||
To him these ladles go, to him these racing mares: he only will give ear to all the words I speak. All-speeding, victor, perfecter of sacrifice, the Babe with flawless help hath mustered vigorous might.
1.145.4
उ॒प॒स्थायं॑ चरति॒ यत् स॒मार॑त स॒द्यो जा॒तस्त॑त्सार॒ युज्ये॑भिः | अ॒भि श्वा॒न्तं मृ॑शते ना॒न्द्ये॑ मु॒दे यदीं॒ गच्छ॑न्त्युश॒तीर॑पिष्ठि॒तम् ||
Whate’er he meets he grasps and then runs farther on, and straightway, newly born, creeps forward with his kin. He stirs the wearied man to pleasure and great joy what time the longing gifts approach him as he comes.
1.145.5
स ईं॑ मृ॒गो अप्यो॑ वन॒र्गुरुप॑ त्व॒च्यु॑प॒मस्यां॒ नि धा॑यि | व्य॑ब्रवीद् व॒युना॒ मर्त्ये॑भ्यो॒ ऽग्निर्वि॒द्वाँ ऋ॑त॒चिद्धि स॒त्यः ||
He is a wild thing of the flood and forest: he hath been laid upon the highest surface. He hath declared the lore of works to mortals, Agni the Wise, for he knows Law, the Truthful.
