Recitation with translationAtharva Veda 7.83.2

dhā́mno-dhā́mno rā́jan itó varuṇa muñca naḥ | yád ā́po aghnyā́ íti váruṇéti yád ūcim tátas varuṇa muñca naḥ

From bond on bond, O King, from hence, O Varuṇa, release us. Whatsoever we have spoken—‘the Waters are inviolable,’ and ‘Varuṇa’—from that, O Varuṇa, release us.

ഹേ രാജൻ, ഹേ വരുണ, ഇവിടെ നിന്ന് ബന്ധനത്തിന്മേൽ ബന്ധനത്തിൽ നിന്ന് ഞങ്ങളെ മോചിപ്പിക്കൂ. ഞങ്ങൾ എന്തെല്ലാം പറഞ്ഞിട്ടുണ്ടോ—‘ആപഃ അഘ്ന്യാഃ’ (ജലങ്ങൾ അഹിംസ്യ/ലംഘിക്കരുതാത്തവ) എന്നും ‘വരുണ’ എന്നും—അതിൽ നിന്ന്, ഹേ വരുണ, ഞങ്ങളെ വിമോചിപ്പിക്കൂ.
