Library·Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka)·1·1.6
शं नो देवीर् अभिष्टय आपो भवन्तु पीतये । शं योर् अभि स्रवन्तु नः ॥१॥
śaṃ no devīr abhiṣṭaya āpo bhavantu pītaye | śaṃ yor abhi sravantu naḥ ||1||
Be the divine waters weal for us in order to assistance, to drink; weal [and] health flow they unto us.
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
अप्सु मे सोमो अब्रवीद् अन्तर् विश्वानि भेषजा । अग्निं च विश्वशंभुवम् ॥२॥
apsu me somo abravīd antar viśvāni bheṣajā | agniṃ ca viśvaśaṃbhuvam ||2||
Within the waters, Soma told me, are all remedies, and Agni (fire) wealful for all.
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
आपः पृणीत भेषजं वरूथं तन्वे मम । ज्योक् च सूर्यं दृशे ॥३॥
āpaḥ pṛṇīta bheṣajaṃ varūthaṃ tanve mama | jyok ca sūryaṃ dṛśe ||3||
O waters, bestow a remedy, protection (várūtha) for my body, and long to see the sun.
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
शं न आपो धन्वन्याः शम् उ सन्त्व् अनूप्याः । शं नः खनित्रिमा आपः शम् उ याः कुम्भ आभृताः । शिवा नः सन्तु वार्षिकीः ॥४॥
śaṃ na āpo dhanvanyāḥ śam u santv anūpyāḥ | śaṃ naḥ khanitrimā āpaḥ śam u yāḥ kumbha ābhṛtāḥ | śivā naḥ santu vārṣikīḥ ||4||
Weal for us the waters of the plains, and weal be those of the marshes, weal for us the waters won by digging, and weal what are brought in a vessel; propitious to us be those of the rain.
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
