Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 4.21.4

AVŚ 4.21.4

न ता अर्वा रेणुककाटो ऽश्नुते न संस्कृतत्रम् उप यन्ति ता अभि । उरुगायम् अभयं तस्य ता अनु गावो मर्तस्य वि चरन्ति यज्वनः ॥४॥

na tā arvā reṇukakāṭo 'śnute na saṃskṛtatram upa yanti tā abhi | urugāyam abhayaṃ tasya tā anu gāvo martasya vi caranti yajvanaḥ ||4||

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

No dust-raising horseman (? árvan) reaches them; not unto the slaughter-house (?) do they go; those kine of that sacrificing mortal roam over wide-going fearlessness.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
