AVŚ 18.1.50

यमो नो गातुं प्रथमो विवेद नैषा गव्यूतिर् अपभर्तवा उ । यत्रा नः पूर्वे पितरः परेता एना जज्ञानाः पथ्या अनु स्वाः ॥५०॥ ५

yamo no gātuṃ prathamo viveda naiṣā gavyūtir apabhartavā u | yatrā naḥ pūrve pitaraḥ paretā enā jajñānāḥ pathyā anu svāḥ ||50|| 5

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

Yama first found for us a track (gātú); that is not a pasture to be borne away; where our former Fathers went forth, there (enā́) [go] those born [of them], along their own roads.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
