Recitation with translationAtharva Veda 7.68.2

idáṃ te havyáṃ ghṛtávat sárasvati idáṃ pitṝṇā́ṃ havír-āsyaṃ yát | imā́ni te uditā́ śáṃtamāni tébhir vayáṃ mádhuvantaḥ syāma ||

This oblation, rich with ghee, is thine, O Sarasvatī; this, which is the Fathers’ mouth of offering. These most gracious boons of thine, proclaimed forth—by them may we be honeyed, may we be sweet with prosperity.

ഹേ സരസ്വതി, ഘൃതസമൃദ്ധമായ ഈ ഹവ്യം നിനക്കുള്ളതാണ്; ഇത് പിതൃകളുടെ ഹവിരാസ്യം (അർപ്പണത്തിന്റെ മുഖം) ആകുന്നു. നീ പ്രസിദ്ധീകരിച്ച ഈ അത്യന്തം ശന്തമമായ ദാനങ്ങളാൽ—ഞങ്ങൾ മധുമന്തരാകട്ടെ, സമൃദ്ധിയാൽ മധുരമുള്ളവരാകട്ടെ.
