Sanskrit recitationRig Veda 5.41.19

abhí na íḷā yū́thasya mātā smánnadī́bhir urváśī vā gṛṇātu | urváśī vā bṛhaddívā gṛṇānā́bhyū́rṇvānā prábhṛthasyā́yoḥ ||

Möge Ilā, die Mutter der Herden, über uns sprechen; oder möge Urvaśī mit den Flüssen für uns singen. Urvaśī, weit wie der Himmel, singend, möge uns umhüllen—uns einhüllend—mit der erhobenen Traglast der Opfergabe und ihrer Fülle.
