Sukta 65
दुरितनाशनम्। प्र॒ती॒चीन॑फलो॒ हि त्वमपा॑मार्ग रु॒रोहि॑थ । सर्वा॒न् मच्छ॒पथाँ अधि॒ वरी॑यो यावया इ॒तः
pratīcī́na-phalo hí tvám apāmārga ruróhiṭha | sárvān macchapáthān ádhi várīyo yāvayā itáḥ ||
Backward-fruited art thou, O Apāmārga, and thou springest up: drive hence from here, as one the stronger and the better, all curses levelled against me.
ഹേ അപാമാർഗ, നീ പ്രതീചീന-ഫലമുള്ളവൻ; നീ മുളച്ച് ഉയരുന്നു. എനിക്കെതിരായി ചൊല്ലപ്പെട്ട എല്ലാ ശപഥങ്ങളെയും/ശാപങ്ങളെയും, ശക്തനും ശ്രേഷ്ഠനും ആയി, ഇവിടെ നിന്ന് അകറ്റി ഓടിക്കളയുക.
