Library·Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka)·6·6.45
परो ऽपेहि मनस्पाप किम् अशस्तानि शंससि । परेहि न त्वा कामये वृक्षां वनानि सं चर गृहेषु गोषु मे मनः ॥१॥
paro 'pehi manaspāpa kim aśastāni śaṃsasi | parehi na tvā kāmaye vṛkṣāṃ vanāni saṃ cara gṛheṣu goṣu me manaḥ ||1||
Go far away, O mind-evil! why utterest (çaṅs) thou things unuttered? Go away; I desire thee not; do thou frequent (sam-cara) trees, woods; in houses, in kine [is] my mind.
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
अवशसा निःशसा यत् पराशसोपारिम जाग्रतो यत् स्वपन्तः । अग्निर् विश्वान्य् अप दुष्कृतान्य् अजुष्टान्य् आरे अस्मद् दधातु ॥२॥
avaśasā niḥśasā yat parāśasopārima jāgrato yat svapantaḥ | agnir viśvāny apa duṣkṛtāny ajuṣṭāny āre asmad dadhātu ||2||
If (yát) by down-utterance, out-utterance, forth-utterance we have offended (upa-ṛ), waking or (yát) sleeping, let Agni put far away from us all disagreeable ill-deeds.
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
यद् इन्द्र ब्रह्मणस् पते ऽपि मृषा चरामसि । प्रचेता न आङ्गिरसो दुरितात् पात्व् अंहसः ॥३॥
yad indra brahmaṇas pate 'pi mṛṣā carāmasi | pracetā na āṅgiraso duritāt pātv aṃhasaḥ ||3||
If (yát), O Indra, O Brahmaṇaspati, we also proceed falsely, let the Ān̄girasa, forethoughtful, protect us from difficulty, from distress.
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
