Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 4.21.6

AVŚ 4.21.6

यूयं गावो मेदयथ कृशं चिद् अश्रीरं चित् कृणुथा सुप्रतीकम् । भद्रं गृहं कृणुथ भद्रवाचो बृहद् वो वय उच्यते सभासु ॥६॥

yūyaṃ gāvo medayatha kṛśaṃ cid aśrīraṃ cit kṛṇuthā supratīkam | bhadraṃ gṛhaṃ kṛṇutha bhadravāco bṛhad vo vaya ucyate sabhāsu ||6||

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

Ye, O kine, fatten whoever is lean; the unlovely (açrīrá) one ye make of good aspect; ye make the house excellent, O ye of excellent voice; great is your vigor (váyas) called in the assemblies (sabhā́).

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
