Recitation with translationRig Veda 5.83.1

áchā vada tavásaṃ gī́rbhir ābhíḥ stuhí parjányam namasā́ vivāsa | kánikradad vṛṣabhó jī́radānū réto dadhāty óṣadhīṣu gárbham ||

Ucapkanlah kepada Yang Perkasa dengan nyanyian-nyanyian ilham ini; pujilah Parjanya dengan sembah-hormat dan panggillah dia mendekat. Mengaum, sang banteng yang pantas memberi dengan segera, dia meletakkan benih kehidupan pada tumbuh-tumbuhan—janin tersembunyi pertumbuhan dalam tabiat bumi.
