Rig Veda 2.42.2: Mandala 2, Sukta 42, Mantra 2
Sukta 2.42
मा त्वा श्येन उद्वधीन्मा सुपर्णो मा त्वा विददिषुमान्वीरो अस्ता । पित्र्यामनु प्रदिशं कनिक्रदत्सुमङ्गलो भद्रवादी वदेह ॥
mā́ tvā śyéná úd vadhīn mā́ su-parṇó mā́ tvā vidád íṣu-mān vīró ástā | pitryā́m ánu pra-díśaṁ kaníkradat su-maṅgálo bhadrá-vādī vada iha ||
Huwag kang ibagsak ng agila, ni ng may-malakas na pakpak na dumaklot sa iyo, ni ng bayaning may-pana na hanapin kang tibok. Sumigaw ka sa direksyong pinagmulan ng mga ninuno; maging mapalad, magsalita ng mabuting salita dito - sa gayon ang landas ay nagiging ligtas at ang panloob na daanan ay nananatiling walang pinsala.
