अश्वत्थो देवसदनस् तृतीयस्याम् इतो दिवि । तत्रामृतस्य चक्षणम् देवाः कुष्ठम् अवन्वत ॥१॥

aśvattho devasadanas tṛtīyasyām ito divi | tatrāmṛtasya cakṣaṇam devāḥ kuṣṭham avanvata ||1||

The açvatthá, seat of the gods, in the third heaven from here; there the gods won the kúṣṭha, the sight of immortality.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)

हिरण्ययी नौर् अचरद् धिरण्यबन्धना दिवि । तत्रामृतस्य पुष्पं देवाः कुष्ठम् अवन्वत ॥२॥

hiraṇyayī naur acarad dhiraṇyabandhanā divi | tatrāmṛtasya puṣpaṃ devāḥ kuṣṭham avanvata ||2||

A golden ship, of golden tackle, moved about in the sky; there the gods won the kúṣṭha, the flower of immortality.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)

गर्भो अस्य् ओषधीनां गर्भो हिमवताम् उत । गर्भो विश्वस्य भूतस्येमं मे अगदं कृधि ॥३॥

garbho asy oṣadhīnāṃ garbho himavatām uta | garbho viśvasya bhūtasyemaṃ me agadaṃ kṛdhi ||3||

Thou art the young (gárbha) of herbs; the young also of the snowy [mountains], the young of all existence; make thou this man free from disease for me.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
