Atharva Veda 18.2.32 — Kanda 18, Anuvaka 1, Sukta 2, Mantra 32

Sukta 2

य॒मः परोऽव॑रो॒ विव॑स्वा॒न् ततः॒ परं॒ नाति॑ पश्यामि॒ किं च॒न। य॒मे अ॑ध्व॒रो अधि॑ मे॒ निवि॑ष्टो॒ भुवो॒ विव॑स्वान॒न्वात॑तान

yamáḥ páro ’váro vívasvān tátaḥ paráṃ nā́ti paśyāmi kíṃ caná | yamé adhvaró ádhi me níviṣṭo bhúvo vívasvān ánvātatan ||

Yama is the farther, the nearer; Vivasvant—beyond that I see not anything at all. In Yama is the rite for me established; Vivasvant hath stretched it along through the worlds.

యముడు దూరమూ, సమీపమూ; వివస్వాన్—దాని పైన నాకు ఏదీ కనబడదు. యమునిలో నా కొరకు యజ్ఞ-విధి స్థాపితమైంది; వివస్వాన్ దానిని లోకములంతటా విస్తరింపజేశాడు.
