Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 10.18.12

RV 10.18.12

उच्छ्वञ्चमाना पृथिवी सु तिष्ठतु सहस्रम् मित उप हि श्रयन्ताम् । ते गृहासो घृतश्चुतो भवन्तु विश्वाहास्मै शरणाः सन्त्व् अत्र ॥

ucchvañcamānā pṛthivī su tiṣṭhatu sahasram mita upa hi śrayantām | te gṛhāso ghṛtaścuto bhavantu viśvāhāsmai śaraṇāḥ santv atra ||

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

Now let the heaving earth be free from motion: yea,- let a thousand clods remain above him. Be they to him a home distilling fatness, here let them ever be his place of refuge.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
