Sukta 76
प॒क्षी जा॒यान्यः॑ पतति॒ स आ वि॑शति॒ पूरु॑षम्। तदक्षि॑तस्य भेष॒जमु॒भयोः॒ सुक्ष॑तस्य च
pakṣī́ jāyānyáḥ patati sá ā́ viśati púruṣam | tád ákṣitasya bheṣajám ubháyoḥ súkṣatasya ca ||
A winged Jāyānya flieth; it entereth into the man. That is the medicine of the uninjured, and of both—yea, of that which is well-stricken also.
يطيرُ جَايَانْيَا مُجَنَّحٌ؛ ويدخلُ في الإنسان. فذلك دواءٌ لغيرِ المجروح، ولِكِلَيْهِما—بل ولِمَن أُصيبَ إصابةً مُحكَمةٍ أيضًا.
