Mantra 1
Sukta 105
कासशमनम्। यथा मनो मनस्केतः परापतत्याशुमत्। एवा त्वं कासे प्र पत मनसोऽनु प्रवाय्यऽम्
yáthā máno manasketáḥ parā́-pataty āśumát | evā́ tvaṃ kā́se prá pata manáso ’nú pravā́yyam ||
As thought, whose token is the mind, darts swiftly forth and far away,—even so, O Cough, do thou fly forth; after the mind, be blown away.
كما أنَّ الفكرَ—وعلامتُه المَنَس (manas)—يندفع سريعًا بعيدًا إلى الخارج؛ كذلك أنتَ، يا كاسا (السعال)، اطِرْ وانطلق؛ وعلى أثرِ المَنَس، لِتُذْرَ مع هبوبِ الريح.
Rishi: Atharvanic tradition (often transmitted without a distinct ṛṣi-name for short bhaiṣajya charms in Book 6; varies by Anukramaṇī).
Devata: Kāsa (personified cough) as the addressed entity; implicit aid of Vāyu (wind) as carrier-away.
Chandas: Anuṣṭubh (with Atharvanic cadence)
