Sukta 31
उदायु॑षा॒ समायु॒षोदोष॑धीनां॒ रसे॑न । व्य॑१हं सर्वे॑ण पा॒प्मना॒ वि यक्ष्मे॑ण॒ समायु॑षा
úd ā́yuṣā samā́yuṣód óṣadhīnāṃ rásena | vy àháṃ sárveṇa pā́pmanā ví yákṣmeṇa samā́yuṣā ||
Up with thy life, with full life—up with the sap of herbs. I drive away, with all malignity, the wasting sickness, and (set thee) with a full term of life.
उठो, साँस चलाओ, पूरी उम्र तक जियो। पौधों और घास का रस तुम्हे ताकत दे। मैं तुमसे सारी बुरी चीज़ें भगा देता हूँ। यह बिमारी जो तुम्हे खोखला करती है, वो मैं दूर करता हूँ। तुम पूरी उम्र तक जियो।
Rishi: Atharvanic (variable anukramaṇī).
