Sanskrit recitationRig Veda 5.12.6

yás te agne námasā yajñám ī́ṭṭa ṛtáṃ sá pāty aruṣásya vṛ́ṣṇaḥ | tásya kṣáyaḥ pṛthúr ā́ sādhúr etu prá-sarsrāṇasya náhuṣasya śéṣaḥ ||

Quien, oh Agni, con reverencia enciende y sirve el sacrificio fundado en Ṛta, a ese lo guarda el Poder ardiente e impetuoso, el Toro rojizo. Para él, que llegue una morada amplia y firme del ser; que le alcance el resto legítimo de Nahusha, del buscador humano siempre apremiante.
