Rig Veda 1.186.5: Mandala 1, Sukta 186, Mantra 5

Sukta 1.186

Devata: Ahi Budhnya; Apām Napāt (invoked/activated through him)
Chandas: Trishtubh (probable; requires verification)

उत नोऽहिर्बुध्न्यो मयस्कः शिशुं न पिप्युषीव वेति सिन्धुः । येन नपातमपां जुनाम मनोजुवो वृषणो यं वहन्ति ॥

utá no áhir budhnyò mayáskaḥ śíśuṃ ná pipyúṣīva veti síndhuḥ | yéná napātam apā́ṃ junā́ma manojúvo vṛ́ṣaṇo yáṃ váhanti ||

E para nós mova-se Ahi Budhnya, a Serpente fundada no profundo, de poder benfazejo, como uma vaca-rio que nutre o seu filhote. Por ele despertemos Apām Napāt, a quem levam adiante energias fortes e velozes de mente.
