AVŚ 19.11.3

शं नो अज एकपाद् देवो अस्तु शम् अहिर् बुध्न्यः शं समुद्रः । शं नो अपां नपात् पेरुर् अस्तु शं नः पृष्णिर् भवतु देवगोपा ॥३॥

śaṃ no aja ekapād devo astu śam ahir budhnyaḥ śaṃ samudraḥ | śaṃ no apāṃ napāt perur astu śaṃ naḥ pṛṣṇir bhavatu devagopā ||3||

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

Weal for us be the divine (devá) one-footed goat (ajá ékapad), weal the bottom snake (áhi budhnyà), weal the ocean; weal for us be Peru, grandson of the waters (apā́ṁ nápāt); weal for us be the spotted one (pṛ́çni), guarded by the gods.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
