Recitation with translationAtharva Veda 7.12.4

yád vo mánaḥ párāgatam yád baddhám ihá véha vā́ | tád va ā́ vartayāmasi máyi vo ramatāṃ mánaḥ

What mind of yours hath wandered far, what mind is bound—whether here or yonder—this same we turn back hither. In me let your mind take pleasure; in me let it rest.

Jaki wasz umysł oddalił się, jaki umysł jest związany - czy tu, czy tam - ten sam my tu odwracamy. We mnie niech wasz umysł znajduje przyjemność; we mnie niech odpoczywa.
