Plain text of Rig Veda - Book The Tenth · Hymn LXII. The Seers
1 Ye, who, adorned with guerdon through the worship, have won you the Mighty One's friendship and eternal life,
Even to you be happiness, Angirases. Welcome the son of Manu, ye who are most wise.
2 The forebears, who drove forth the wealth in cattle, have in the year's courses cleft Vala by Eternal Law:
A lengthened life be yours, O ye Angirases. Welcome the son of Manu, ye who are most wise.
3 Ye raised the sun to heaven by everlasting Law, and spread broad earth, the Mother, out on every side.
Fair wealth of progeny be yours, Angirases. Welcome the son of Manu, ye who are most wise.
4 This kinsman in your dwelling-place speaks pleasant words: give ear to this, ye seers, children of the righteous.
High dignity of learning be yours, Angirases. Welcome the son of Manu, ye who are most wise.
7 With the Mighty One for associate the priests have cleared the stable full of steeds and kine,
Giving to me a thousand with their eight-marked cars, they gained renown among the righteous.
8 May this man's sons be multiplied; like springing corn may Manu grow,
Who gives at once in bounteous gift a thousand kine, a hundred steeds.
9 No one attains to him, as though a man would grasp the heights of heaven.
Savarnya's gift hath broadened like an ample flood.
11 Blest be the hamlet's chief, most liberal Manu, and may his bounty rival that of the sun.
May the Lord let Savarni's life be lengthened, with whom, unwearied, we have lived and prospered.
