Library·Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka)·6·6.12
परि द्याम् इव सूर्यो ऽहीनां जनिमागमम् । रात्री जगद् इवान्यद् धंसात् तेना ते वारये विषम् ॥१॥
pari dyām iva sūryo 'hīnāṃ janimāgamam | rātrī jagad ivānyad dhaṃsāt tenā te vāraye viṣam ||1||
I have gone about the race of snakes, as the sun about the sky, as night about living creatures other than the swan (haṅsá); thereby do I ward off thy poison.
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
यद् ब्रह्मभिर् यद् ऋषिभिर् यद् देवैर् विदितं पुरा । यद् भूतं भव्यम् आसन्वत् तेना ते वारये विषम् ॥२॥
yad brahmabhir yad ṛṣibhir yad devair viditaṃ purā | yad bhūtaṃ bhavyam āsanvat tenā te vāraye viṣam ||2||
What was known of old by priests (brahmán), what by seers, what by gods; what is (bhūtá), is to be, that has a mouth—therewith do I ward off thy poison.
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
मध्वा पृञ्चे नद्यः पर्वता गिरयो मधु । मधु परुष्णी शीपाला शम् आस्ने अस्तु शं हृदे ॥३॥
madhvā pṛñce nadyaḥ parvatā girayo madhu | madhu paruṣṇī śīpālā śam āsne astu śaṃ hṛde ||3||
With honey I mix (pṛc) the streams; the rugged (? párvata) mountains [are] honey; honey is the Páruṣṇī, the Cī́pālā; weal be to thy mouth, weal to thy heart.
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
