Rig Veda Book 2 Hymn 431

परदकषिनिदभि गरणनति कारवो वयो वदनत रतुथा शकुनतयः |
उभे वाचौ वदति सामगा इव गायतरं च तरैषटुभं चानु राजति ||
उदगातेव शकुने साम गायसि बरहमपुतर इव सवनेषु शंससि |
वरषेव वाजी शिशुमतीरपीतया सरवतो नः शकुने भदरमा वद विशवतो नः शकुने पुणयमा वद ||
आवदंसतवं शकुने भदरमा वद तूषणीमासीनः सुमतिं चिकिदधि नः |
यदुतपतन वदसि करकरिरयथा बरहद . .. ||

pradakṣinidabhi ghṛṇanti kāravo vayo vadanta ṛtuthā śakuntayaḥ |
ubhe vācau vadati sāmaghā iva ghāyatraṃ ca traiṣṫubhaṃ cānu rājati ||
udghāteva śakune sāma ghāyasi brahmaputra iva savaneṣu śaṃsasi |
vṛṣeva vājī śiśumatīrapītyā sarvato naḥ śakune bhadramā vada viśvato naḥ śakune puṇyamā vada ||
āvadaṃstvaṃ śakune bhadramā vada tūṣṇīmāsīnaḥ sumatiṃ cikiddhi naḥ |
yadutpatan vadasi karkariryathā bṛhad . .. ||
