Recitation with translationAtharva Veda 5.22.2

ayáṃ yó víśvān haritā́n kṛṇóṣi úcchocayan agnír ivābhidúnvan | ádha hí takman arásó hí bhūyā ádha ny-àṅ ádharāṅ vā pár ehi ||

Thou who makest all men pallid, kindling up and smiting like unto Agni—then, O Fever, be thou verily sapless; then go away downward, to the lower region, or depart afar!

ఓ జ్వరమా! నీవు సమస్త మనుష్యులను హరితవర్ణంగా (వాడిపోయేలా) చేయువాడవు; అగ్నివలె చెలరేగి దెబ్బకొట్టువాడవు—అప్పుడు నీవు నిశ్చయంగా రసరహితుడవై పోవు. తరువాత క్రిందికి, అధోలోకమునకు పో; లేదా చాలా దూరంగా తొలగిపో.
