Sukta 11
त्वं ह्य॑१ङ्ग व॑रुण स्वधाव॒न् विश्वा॒ वेत्थ॒ जनि॑म सुप्रणीते । किं रज॑स ए॒ना प॒रो अ॒न्यद॑स्त्ये॒ना किं परे॒णाव॑रममुर
tváṃ hí aṅgá varuṇa svadhāvan víśvā véttha jánima supranīte | kíṃ rájasa énā paráḥ anyád asty énā kíṃ paréṇā́varam amuḥ ||
For thou, I pray, O Varuṇa of native might, knowest all births, well-guided. What other thing is there beyond this region? and by this, what is the lower side beyond that yonder?
Ty bowiem, proszę, o Waruno o własnej mocy, znasz wszystkie narodziny, dobrze prowadzone. Co inne jest poza tym regionem? a przez to, co jest niższą stroną po tamtej stronie?
