Recitation with translationAtharva Veda 3.17.3

lā́ṅgalaṃ pavī́ravat suśī́maṃ soma-sátsaru | úd íd vapatu gā́mavim prásthāvad ratha-vā́hanaṃ pī́barīṃ ca pra-fárvyam

The plough, iron-pointed, well-compacted, Soma-speeded—let it indeed cast up, cow-winning; well-based, chariot-drawing; and make the soil swelling-rich and well-furrowed.

ہل، جس کا پوائنٹا لوہے کا ہے، اچھی طرح جڑا ہوا، سوم کی رفتار والا - یہ یقیناً گائے جیتنے والا ہو، اچھی طرح قائم، رتھ کھینچنے والا؛ اور مٹی کو پھولے ہوئے امیر اور اچھی نالیوں والا بنائے۔
