Samhita Patha (Devanagari)

समु॒द्रादू॒र्मिर्मधु॑माँ॒२ उदा॑र॒दुपा॒ᳪशुना॒ सम॑मृत॒त्वमा॑नट् । घृ॒तस्य॒ नाम॒ गुह्यं॒ यदस्ति॑ जि॒ह्वा दे॒वाना॑म॒मृत॑स्य॒ नाभि॑:

Transliteration

samudrā́d ū́rmir mádhumān úd ārad upā́ṃśunā sáma amr̥tatvám ānaṭ | ghr̄tásya nā́ma gúhyaṃ yád ásti jihvā́ devā́nām amr̥tásya nā́bhiḥ

Translation

சமுத்திரத்திலிருந்து தேன்மிகு ஊர்மி (அலை) எழுந்தது; உபாஂஶு (மெல்லிய குரல்) உச்சரிப்புடன் அது அமரத்துவத்தை அடைந்தது. நெய்யின் மறைபெயர்—அது உண்மையில் என்னவோ—அது தேவர்களின் நாவு; அமிர்தத்தின் நாபி-இடம்.
