gokulkr Posted February 14, 2004 Report Share Posted February 14, 2004 DECADE V Agni 9. Through all this world strode Vishnu: thrice his foot he planted, and the whole world Was gathered in his footstep's dust. DECADE III Indra and others 6. To Vishnu, to the mighty whom the Maruts follow, let your hymns born in song go forth, Evayamarut! To the strong, very holy band adorned with bracelets, that rushes on in joy and ever roars for vigour! IV Vishnu 1. What, Vishnu, is the name that thou proclaimest when thou declaredst, I am Sipivishta? Hide not this form from us, nor keep it secret, since thou didst wear another shape in battle. 2. This offering to-day, O Sipivishta, I, skilled in rules, extol, to thee the noble. Yea, I, the poor and weak, praise thee, the mighty vishnu, who dwellest in the realm beyond this region. 3. O Vishnu, unto thee my lips cry Vashat! Let this mine offering, Sipivishta, please thee! May these my songs of eulogy exalt thee! Do ye preserve us evermore with blessings! V Vishnu 1. Through all this world strode Vishnu: thrice his foot he planted, and the whole Was gathered in his footstep's dust. 2. Vishnu, the guardian, he whom none deceiveth, made three steps, thenceforth Establishing his high decrees. 3. Look ye on Vishnu's works whereby the friend of Indra, close allied,Hath let his holy ways be seen 4. The princes evermore behold that loftiest place of Vishnu, like An eye extended through the heavens. 5. This, Vishou's station most sublime, the sages, ever-vigilant, Lovers of holy song, light up. 6. May the Gods help and favour us out of the place whence Vishnu strode Over the back and ridge of earth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
