AVŚ 3.13.1

यद् अदः संप्रयतीर् अहाव् अनदता हते । तस्माद् आ नद्यो नाम स्थ ता वो नामानि सिन्धवः ॥१॥

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

Since formerly (? adás), going forth together, ye resounded (nad) when the dragon was slain, thenceforth ye are streams (nadī́) by name: these are your names, O rivers.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
