Atharva Veda 1.3.8: Kanda 1, Anuvaka 1, Sukta 3, Mantra 8
Sukta 3
विषि॑तं ते वस्तिबि॒लं स॑मु॒द्रस्यो॑द॒धेरि॑व । ए॒वा ते॒ मूत्रं॑ मुच्यतां ब॒हिर्बालिति॑ सर्व॒कम्
víṣitaṃ te vastibiláṃ samudrásyodadhér iva | evā́ te mū́traṃ mucyatāṃ bahírbālíti sarvákam ||
Opened be for thee the bladder’s outlet, like that of ocean and of sea. Thus let thy urine be discharged—outward, the whole obstructing mass expelled.
तुम्हारा ब्लैडर का रास्ता खुला हो, जैसे समुंदर और सागर का रास्ता खुला होता है। 'बल' के साथ तुम्हारा मूत्र बाहर निकल जाये। जो भी अंदर अटका हुआ है, वो सब बाहर आ जाये।
Rishi: Atharvanic tradition (seer not individually specified for this single verse in many summaries; attributed to the hymn’s r̥ṣi in the Anukramaṇī).

Chandas: Anuṣṭubh (8+8+8+8, with Atharvanic flexibility)
