Sanskrit recitationRig Veda 8.47.17

yáthā kalā́ṃ yáthā śapháṃ yáthā ṛṇáṃ saṃ-náyāmasi | evā́ duḥ-svápnyaṃ sárvam āptyé sáṃ nayāmasi anehaso va ūtáyaḥ su-ūtáyo va ūtáyaḥ ||

ఎలా మేము కోల్పోయిన కలా (అంశం)ను సమీకరిస్తామో, ఎలా చెల్లాచెదురైనదాన్ని మళ్లీ ఏకత్రం చేస్తామో, ఎలా ఋణాన్ని తీర్చుకుంటామో—అలాగే ఆప్త్య పరిధిలోని సర్వ దుష్స్వప్న్యాన్ని మేము ‘సంనయామ’ (సమీకరించి నిర్వీర్యం) చేయుదుము. నీ అలసటలేని, శుభ సహాయాలు మా వెంట ఉండుగాక.
