Library·Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka)·2·2.31
इन्द्रस्य या मही दृषत् क्रिमेर् विश्वस्य तर्हणी । तया पिनष्मि सं क्रिमीन् दृषदा खल्वां इव ॥१॥
indrasya yā mahī dṛṣat krimer viśvasya tarhaṇī | tayā pinaṣmi saṃ krimīn dṛṣadā khalvāṃ iva ||1||
The great mill-stone that is Indra's, bruiser (tárhaṇa) of every worm—with that I mash (piṣ) together the worms, as khálva -grains with a mill-stone.
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
दृष्टम् अदृष्टम् अतृहम् अथो कुरूरुम् अतृहम् । अल्गण्डून्त् सर्वान् छलुनान् क्रिमीन् वचसा जम्भयामसि ॥२॥
dṛṣṭam adṛṣṭam atṛham atho kurūrum atṛham | algaṇḍūnt sarvān chalunān krimīn vacasā jambhayāmasi ||2||
The seen, the unseen one have I bruised, also the kurū́ru have I bruised; all the algáṇḍus, the çalúnas, the worms we grind up with our spell (vácas).
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
अल्गण्डून् हन्मि महता वधेन दूना अदूना अरसा अभूवन् । शिष्टान् अशिष्टान् नि तिरामि वाचा यथा क्रिमीणां नकिर् उछिषातै ॥३॥
algaṇḍūn hanmi mahatā vadhena dūnā adūnā arasā abhūvan | śiṣṭān aśiṣṭān ni tirāmi vācā yathā krimīṇāṃ nakir uchiṣātai ||3||
I smite the algáṇḍus with a great deadly weapon; burnt [or] unburnt, they have become sapless; those left [or] not left I draw down by my spell (vā́c), that no one of the worms be left.
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
अन्वान्त्र्यं शीर्षण्यम् अथो पार्ष्टेयं क्रिमीन् । अवस्कवं व्यध्वरं क्रिमीन् वचसा जम्भयामसि ॥४॥
anvāntryaṃ śīrṣaṇyam atho pārṣṭeyaṃ krimīn | avaskavaṃ vyadhvaraṃ krimīn vacasā jambhayāmasi ||4||
The one along the entrails, the one in the head, likewise the worm in the ribs, the avaskavá, the vyadhvará —the worms we grind up with our spell (vácas).
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
ये क्रिमयः पर्वतेशु वनेष्व् ओषधीषु पशुष्व् अप्स्व् अन्तः । ये अस्माकं तन्वम् आविविशुः सर्वं तद् धन्मि जनिम क्रिमीणाम् ॥५॥
ye krimayaḥ parvateśu vaneṣv oṣadhīṣu paśuṣv apsv antaḥ | ye asmākaṃ tanvam āviviśuḥ sarvaṃ tad dhanmi janima krimīṇām ||5||
The worms that are in the mountains, in the woods, in the herbs, in the cattle, within the waters, that have entered our selves (tanū́)—that whole generation (jåniman) of worms I smite.
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
