Rig Veda
pra vo mahe matayo yantu viṣṇave marutvate girijā evayāmarut pra śardhāya prayajyave sukhādaye tavase bhandadiṣṭaye dhunivratāya śavase
To Vishnu, to the Mighty whom the Maruts follow let your hymns born in song go forth, Evayamarut; To the impetuous, strong band, adorned with bracelets, that rushes on in joy and ever roars for vigour.
pra ye jātā mahinā ye ca nu svayam pra vidmanā bruvata evayāmarut kratvā tad vo maruto nādhṛṣe śavo dānā mahnā tad eṣām adhṛṣṭāso nādrayaḥ
They who with might were manifest, and who willingly by their own knowledge told it forth, Evayamarut. Maruts, this strength of yours no wisdom comprehendeth: through their gifts' greatness they are moveless as the mountains.

Who by the psalm they sing are heard, from lofty heaven, the strong, the brightly shining Ones, Evayamarut; In whose abode there is no mightier one to move them, whose lightnings are as fires, who urge the roaring rivers.
sa cakrame mahato nir urukramaḥ samānasmāt sadasa evayāmarut yadāyukta tmanā svād adhi ṣṇubhir viṣpardhaso vimahaso jigāti śevṛdho nṛbhiḥ
He of the Mighty Stride forth strode, Evayamarut, out of the spacious dwelling-place, their home in common. When he, himself, hath yoked his emulous strong horses on heights, he cometh forth, joy-giving, with the Heroes.
svano na vo 'mavān rejayad vṛṣā tveṣo yayis taviṣa evayāmarut yenā sahanta ṛñjata svarociṣa sthāraśmāno hiraṇyayāḥ svāyudhāsa iṣmiṇaḥ
Like your tremendous roar, the rainer with light flashing, strong, speeding, hath made all tremble, Evayamarut, Wherewith victorious ye, self-luminous, press onward, with strong reins, decked with gold, impetuous and well-weaponed.
apāro vo mahimā vṛddhaśavasas tveṣaṃ śavo 'vatv evayāmarut sthātāro hi prasitau saṃdṛśi sthana te na uruṣyatā nidaḥ śuśukvāṃso nāgnayaḥ
Unbounded is your greatness, ye of mighty power: may your bright vigour be our aid, Evayamarut; For ye are visible helpers in the time of trouble: like fires, aglow with light, save us from shame and insult.

So may the Rudras, mighty warriors, Evayamarut, with splendid brilliancy, like fires, be our protectors; They whose terrestrial dwelling-place is wide-extended, whom none suspect of sin, whose bands have lofty courage.
adveṣo no maruto gātum etana śrotā havaṃ jaritur evayāmarut viṣṇor mahaḥ samanyavo yuyotana smad rathyo na daṃsanāpa dveṣāṃsi sanutaḥ
Come in a friendly spirit, come to us, O Maruts, and hear his call who praises you, Evayamarut. Like car-borne men, one-minded with the mighty Vishnu, keep enmity far from us with your deeds of wonder.
gantā no yajñaṃ yajñiyāḥ suśami śrotā havam arakṣa evayāmarut jyeṣṭhāso na parvatāso vyomani yūyaṃ tasya pracetasaḥ syāta durdhartavo nidaḥ
Come to our sacrifice, ye Hnly Ones, to bless it, and, free from demons, hear our call, Evayamarut.
