Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 12.4.19

AVŚ 12.4.19

दुरदभ्नैनम् आ शये याचितां च न दित्सति । नास्मै कामाः सम् ऋध्यन्ते याम् अदत्त्वा चिकीर्षति ॥१९॥

duradabhnainam ā śaye yācitāṃ ca na ditsati | nāsmai kāmāḥ sam ṛdhyante yām adattvā cikīrṣati ||19||

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

Door-damaging (?) lies she on him, if he is not willing to give her when asked for; he does not succeed in the desires which, without having given her, he would fain accomplish (cikīrṣa-).

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
