Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 1.24.1

AVŚ 1.24.1

सुपर्णो जातः प्रथमस् तस्य त्वं पित्तम् आसिथ । तद् आसुरी युधा जिता रूपं चक्रे वनस्पतीन् ॥१॥

suparṇo jātaḥ prathamas tasya tvaṃ pittam āsitha | tad āsurī yudhā jitā rūpaṃ cakre vanaspatīn ||1||

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

The eagle (suparṇá) was born first; of it thou wast the gall; then the Asura-woman, conquered by fight (yúdh), took shape as forest-trees.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
