Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 18.1.31

AVŚ 18.1.31

अर्चामि वां वर्धायापो घृतस्नू द्यावाभूमी शृणुतं रोदसी मे । अहा यद् देवा असुनीतिम् आयन् मध्वा नो अत्र पितरा शिशीताम् ॥३१॥

arcāmi vāṃ vardhāyāpo ghṛtasnū dyāvābhūmī śṛṇutaṃ rodasī me | ahā yad devā asunītim āyan madhvā no atra pitarā śiśītām ||31||

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

I praise (arc) your (du.) work unto increase, ye ghee-surfaced ones; O heaven-and-earth, hear me, ye two firmaments (ródasī); when days, O gods, went to the other life (ásunīti), let the two parents (pitárā) sharpen us here with honey.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
