Vak Sukta

I uphold and move with various gods and beings. I hold aloft Mitra, Varuna, Indra, Agni, and the Ashvins. I uphold Soma, Tvasta, Pushan, and Bhaga. I am the ruling queen and amasser of treasures. The gods have installed me in many places with many homes. Through me alone, all eat, breathe, hear, and see. I announce tidings that gods and men rejoice to hear. I make the man I love mighty and I make him a priest, sage, or scholar. I bend Rudra's bow so his arrow may slay the hater of sacred wisdom. I rouse people and have entered heaven

Aham rudrebhir vasubhis charamyaham adityair uta visvadevaih

Aham mitra varunobha bibharmyaham indragnee aham asvinobha.

I move with the Rudras and also with the Vasus,


I wander with the Adityas and the Vishwadevas.
I hold aloft both Mitra and Varuna,
and also Indra and Agni and the twin Ashvins.

Aham somam ahanasam bibharmi


aham tvashtaram uta pushanam bhagam
Aham dadhami dravinam havishmate supravye yajamanaya sunvate.

I uphold Soma the exuberant;


I uphold Tvasta, Pushan, and Bhaga.
I endow with wealth the offerer of oblation,
the worshipper and the pious presser of the Soma.

Aham rashtri sangamani vasunam chikitushee prathama yajniyanam


Tam ma deva vyadadhuh puritra bhuristhatram bhooryavesayantim.

I am the ruling Queen,


the amasser of treasures,
full of wisdom,
first of those who are worthy of worship.

That me the Gods have installed in many places,


with many homes to enter and abide in.

Maya so annamatti yo vipasyati yah praniti ya i srnotyuktam


Amantavo mam ta upa kshiyanti srudhi sruta sraddhivam te vadami.

Through me alone all eat the food that helps them see,
breathe and hear the spoken word.

He is not aware of me,


yet he dwells in me alone.

Listen, you who know!


For, the words I speak to you deserve your trust.

Ahameva svayam idam vadami jushtam devebhir uta manushebhih


Yam kamaye tam tam ugram krnomi

tam brahmanam tam rshim tam sumedham

It is I who announces the tidings


that the gods and men alike rejoice to hear.

The man I love, I make mighty in strength.

I make him a priest, a sage, or a learned scholar, as I please.


Aham rudraya dhanura tanomi brahmadvishe sarave hantava u
Aham janaya samadam krnomi aham dyava prthivee a vivesa.

I bend the bow for Rudra that his arrow may slay the hater
of the words of sacred wisdom.

I rouse the people, and make them strive.


I have entered the Earth and Heaven, filling everything.

Aham suve pitaram asya murdhan mama yonir apsu antah samudre
Tato vi tishthe bhuvananu visvotamum dyam varshmanopa sprsami

I give birth to the creator


in the heavens
atop the world
and my own origin
is deep in the ocean,
in the cosmic waters.

From there
I permeate all existing worlds,
and even touch yonder heavens
with my forehead.

Ahameva vata iva pra vami arabhamana bhuvanani vishva


Paro diva para ena prthivi etavati mahina sam babhuva

It is my breath that blows as the mighty wind,


while I hold together all the worlds.

Beyond the heavens and above the earth I tower,


such am I in my might and splendour.
