AVŚ 8.2.1

आ रभस्वेमाम् अमृतस्य श्नुष्टिम् अछिद्यमाना जरदष्टिर् अस्तु ते । असुं त आयुः पुनर् आ भरामि रजस् तमो मोप गा मा प्र मेष्ठाः ॥१॥

ā rabhasvemām amṛtasya śnuṣṭim achidyamānā jaradaṣṭir astu te | asuṃ ta āyuḥ punar ā bharāmi rajas tamo mopa gā mā pra meṣṭhāḥ ||1||

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

Take thou hold. on this bundle (?) of immortality; unsevered length of life be thine; I bring back thy life, [thy] life-time; go not to the welkin (rájas), to darkness; do not perish.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
