Sukta 44
वी॒३दं मध्य॒मवा॑सृपद् रक्षो॒हामी॑व॒चात॑नः । अमी॑वाः॒ सर्वा॑श्चा॒तय॑न् ना॒शय॑दभि॒भा इ॒तः
vī́daṃ mádhyam ávāsṛpat rakṣohā́mīvācátanaḥ | amī́vāḥ sárvāś cā́tayan nā́śayad abhíbhā itáḥ
This Vīda crept into the midst, a slayer of Rakṣas, a dispeller of disease: expelling all maladies, it destroyed the assailing powers from hence.
यह विड़ दवा अंदर घुस गई। बुरी आत्मा और बीमारी को मारने वाली है। सब बीमारियों को भगा के, दुश्मन ताकतों को यहाँ से खत्म कर दिया।
