Sukta 39
त्रिः शाम्बु॑भ्यो॒ अङ्गि॑रेभ्य॒स्त्रिरा॑दि॒त्येभ्य॒स्परि॑ । त्रिर्जा॒तो वि॒श्वदे॑वेभ्यः । स कुष्ठो॑ वि॒श्वभे॑षजः सा॒कं सोमे॑न तिष्ठति । त॒क्मानं॒ सर्वं॑ नाशय॒ सर्वा॑श्च यातुधा॒न्यः
tríḥ śā́mbhubhyo áṅgirebhyas trír ādítyebhyaḥ pári | trír jā́to viśvádevebhyaḥ | sá kúṣṭho viśvábheṣajaḥ sā́kaṃ sómena tiṣṭhati | takmā́naṃ sárvaṃ nāśaya sárvāś ca yātudhā́nyaḥ ||
Thrice from the Śambhus, from the Aṅgirases; thrice from about the Ādityas; thrice born from the All-Gods. That Kuṣṭha, the universal medicine, abides together with Soma. Destroy every Takmán-fever, and all the Yātudhānī demonesses.
تین بار شمبھو دیوتاؤں سے، تین بار انگیرس سے، تین بار آدتیہ دیوتاؤں کے آس پاس سے، تین بار جنم لے کر وہ کُشٹھا جو تمام بیماریوں کی دوا ہے، سوم کے ساتھ قائم رہتا ہے۔ ہر تکمان بخار کو اور تمام یاتودھانی شیطانیوں کو ختم کر دے۔
