Yajurveda contains both prose passages called Yajus and Verses called Ruks. The following is a Yajus generally sung at the end of a sacrifice. In content and flavour, it resembles the BharataVakya (Epilogue) in the post-Vedic Dramatic literature. This Mantram is chanted for the welfare of our nation.
योगक्षेमः = UNIVERSAL HAPPY
ॐ
आब्रह्मन् ब्राह्मणो ब्रह्मवर्चसी
जायताम्।
आ राष्ट्रे राजन्यः शूर इषव्योअतिव्याधि महारथो
जायताम्।
दोग्ध्री धेनुर्वोढ़ाअनडुवानाशुःसप्तिः ।
पुरन्धिर्योषा जिष्णु रथेष्ठा सभेयो युवास्य।
यजमानस्य वीरो जायताम्।निकामे निकामे नः पर्जन्यो
वर्षतु।
फलवत्यो न ओषधयः पच्यन्ताम् । योगक्षेमो नः कल्पताम्।।…
O! Brahman! Let there be born in our nation Brahmin, the
pre-eminent in sacred knpwledge;
Let there be born Kshatriya, the valliant, skilled in
archery, exceedingly piercing great fighter;
Let there be born the cow yielding abundant milk; the Ox,
good at carrying, the horse swift going; the woman endowed with all good qualities,
victorious man sitting on the chariot;
Let there be born youthful and heroic sons fit for
attending the assembly, to this sacrifice.
May Parjanya, the god of clouds, rain as much as we
desire;
May our fruit-bearing plants ripen;
May acquisition and preservation be possible for us.
"UNITY IS STRENGTH"
