Atharva Veda 5.4.7: Kanda 5, Anuvaka 1, Sukta 4, Mantra 7
Sukta 4
दे॒वेभ्यो॒ अधि॑ जा॒तोऽसि॒ सोम॑स्यासि॒ सखा॑ हि॒तः । स प्रा॒णाय॑ व्या॒नाय॒ च॑क्षुषे मे अ॒स्मै मृ॑ड
devébhyo ádhi jā́to ’si sómasyāsi sákhā hitáḥ | sá prāṇā́ya vyānā́ya cákṣuṣe me asmái mṛ́ḍ
From the Gods above thou wast begotten; thou art of Soma, his well-appointed friend. For my prāṇa and my vyāna, for mine eye-sight—be gracious unto this man here.
तुम ऊपर देवियों से पैदा हुए हो। तुम सोम के दोस्त हो, उसने तुम्हे ठीक से लगाया है। मेरे साँस के लिए, मेरी नज़र के लिए, इस आदमी पे कृपा करो।
Rishi: Atharvanic tradition (often transmitted under Atharvan/Āṅgirasa headings for bhaiṣajya hymns; specific r̥ṣi attribution depends on Anukramaṇī).
Devata: Kuṣṭha (as personified healing plant) allied with Soma; also implicitly the Devas as source.
Chandas: Anuṣṭubh (predominant in AV healing verses; metrical exactness may be affected by Saṃhitā sandhi).
Primary: karuna
Secondary: shanta
