AVŚ 8.2.2

जीवतां ज्योतिर् अभ्येह्य् अर्वाङ् आ त्वा हरामि शतशारदाय । अवमुञ्चन् मृत्युपाशान् अशस्तिं द्राघीय आयुः प्रतरं ते दधामि ॥२॥

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

Come thou hitherward unto the light of the living; I take thee in order to life for a hundred autumns; loosening down the fetters of death, imprecation, I set for thee further a longer life-time.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
