Atharva Veda 4.26.5: Kanda 4, Anuvaka 3, Sukta 26, Mantra 5
Sukta 26
ये उ॒स्रिया॒ बिभृ॒थो ये वन॒स्पती॒न् ययो॑र्वां॒ विश्वा॒ भुव॑नान्य॒न्तः । द्यावा॑पृथिवी॒ भव॑तं मे स्यो॒ने ते नो॑ मुञ्चत॒मंह॑सः
yé usríyā bibhṛ́thaḥ yé vanaspátīn yáyor vā́ṃ víśvā bhúvanāny antáḥ | dyā́vāpṛthivī́ bhavatam me syóne té no muñcatám áṃhasaḥ
Ye who bear the ruddy kine, ye who bear the forest-lords; within you twain are all existences contained. O Heaven and Earth, be to me a kindly refuge: from anguish and sin do ye release us.
धरती और आसमान, तुम दोनों में सारी दुनिया बसी है। तुम लाल गायों को उठाते हो, तुम पेड़ों को धरते हो। मेरे लिए अच्छा आश्रम बनो, जहाँ मैं साँस ले सकूँ। हमारे पाप और तकलीफ़ दूर कर दो।
