Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 6.16

आबयो अनाबयो रसस् त उग्र आबयो । आ ते करम्भम् अद्मसि ॥१॥

ābayo anābayo rasas ta ugra ābayo | ā te karambham admasi ||1||

O ābayu, non- ābayu! thy juice is sharp (ugrá), O ābayu! unto thy broth do we eat.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)

विहह्लो नाम ते पिता मदावती नाम ते माता । स हिन त्वम् असि यस् त्वम् आत्मानम् आवयः ॥२॥

vihahlo nāma te pitā madāvatī nāma te mātā | sa hina tvam asi yas tvam ātmānam āvayaḥ ||2||

Vihálha by name is thy father, madávatī ('intoxicated') by name is thy mother; for thou art he, not thyself, thou that didst consume thyself.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)

तौविलिके ऽवेलयावायम् ऐलब ऐलयीत् । बभ्रुश् च बभ्रुकर्णश् चापेहि निर् आल ॥३॥

tauvilike 'velayāvāyam ailaba ailayīt | babhruś ca babhrukarṇaś cāpehi nir āla ||3||

O tāuvilikā, quiet down; this racket hath quieted down; both the brown and the brown-eared one: go away, O nirāla!

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)

अलसालासि पूर्व सिलाञ्जालास्य् उत्तरा । नीलागलसाल ॥४॥

alasālāsi pūrva silāñjālāsy uttarā | nīlāgalasāla ||4||

Alasálā art thou first; silā́njālā art thou after; nīlāgalasálā.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
