Atharva Veda 4.25.5: Kanda 4, Anuvaka 3, Sukta 25, Mantra 5

Sukta 25

र॒यिं मे॒ पोषं॑ सवि॒तोत वा॒युस्त॒नू दक्ष॒मा सु॑वतां सु॒शेव॑म्। अ॒य॒क्ष्मता॑तिं॒ मह॑ इ॒ह ध॑त्तं॒ तौ नो॑ मुञ्चत॒मंह॑सः

rayíṁ me póṣaṁ savitóta vāyús tanū́ dákṣam ā́ suvatāṁ suśévam | ayakṣ́matātiṁ máha ihá dhattáṁ táu no muñcatam áṁhasaḥ ||

Wealth for me, and thriving, let Savitar—and Vāyu also—impel; let them bring to the body kindly strength and competence. Set ye here great freedom from wasting-disease: do ye release us from distress.

ليُحَرِّكْ لي سافيتار—وكذلك فايُو—الثروةَ والنماء؛ وليُنزِلا على الجسد قوةً لطيفةً وكفاءةً. ضَعَا هنا عِتقًا عظيمًا من يَكْشْما (المرض المُنهِك المُذْهِب للقوة)؛ وأَطْلِقانا من الضيق.
