For glory

Sanskrit (romanised) · Atharvaveda, Śaunaka (Sanskrit, IAST)

yaśo havir vardhatām indrajūtaṃ sahasravīryaṃ subhṛtaṃ sahaskṛtam prasarsrāṇam anu dīrghāya cakṣase haviṣmantaṃ mā vardhaya jyeṣṭhatātaye

English · William Dwight Whitney

For glory

[As] glory (yáças) let [my] oblation increase, quickened by Indra, of thousand-fold might, well-brought, made with power; me, proceeding mightily onward unto long sight, [me] with my oblation, do thou increase unto chiefhood.

Sanskrit (romanised) · Atharvaveda, Śaunaka (Sanskrit, IAST)

acchā na indraṃ yaśasaṃ yaśobhir yaśasvinaṃ namasānā vidhema sa no rāsva rāṣṭram indrajūtaṃ tasya te rātau yaśasaḥ syāma

English · William Dwight Whitney

Unto our glorious Indra, rich in glory, would we, rendering homage, with glories pay worship; do thou bestow on us royalty quickened by Indra; in thy bestowal here may we be glorious.

Sanskrit (romanised) · Atharvaveda, Śaunaka (Sanskrit, IAST)

yaśā indro yaśā agnir yaśāḥ somo ajāyata yaśā viśvasya bhūtasya aham asmi yaśastamaḥ

English · William Dwight Whitney

Glorious was Indra, glorious was Agni, glorious was Soma born; glorious, of all existence am I most glorious.
