Recitation with translationRig Veda 10.124.2

adévād deváḥ prácatā guhā́ yán prápáśyamāno amṛtatvám emi | śiváṁ yát sántam áśivo jahā́mi svā́t sakhyā́d áraṇīṁ nā́bhim emi ||

Dari yang bukan-dewa menuju Sang Dewa aku pergi, bergerak dengan daya yang terjaga; menempuh guha yang rahasia; memandang ke depan, aku meraih amṛtatva. Meninggalkan yang tak membahagiakan—meski tampak śiva—aku berpisah dari persahabatan lamaku; aku menuju Araṇi, menuju nābhi, sumber tempat Api dilahirkan.
