Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 13.1.53

AVŚ 13.1.53

वर्षम् आजम् घ्रंसो अग्निर् वेदिर् भूमिर् अकल्पत । तत्रैतान् पर्वतान् अग्निर् गीर्भिर् ऊर्ध्वां अकल्पयत् ॥५३॥

varṣam ājam ghraṃso agnir vedir bhūmir akalpata | tatraitān parvatān agnir gīrbhir ūrdhvāṃ akalpayat ||53||

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

Rain as sacrificial butter, heat as fire, earth as sacrificial hearth took shape; there, with songs (gír), the fire shaped these mountains aloft.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
