Atharvaveda 4.1

The bráhman that was first born of old (purástāt; in the east?) Vena hath unclosed from the well-shining edge (sīmatás; horizon?); he unclosed the fundamental nearest shapes (viṣṭhā́) of it, the womb (yóni) of the existent and of the non-existent.

Let this queen of the Fathers (? pítrya) go in the beginning (ágre) for the first birth (janús; race?), standing in the creation; for it (him?) have I sent (hi) this well-shining sinuous one (? hvārá); let them mix (çrī; boil?) the hot drink for the first thirsty one (? dhāsyú).

He who was born forth the knowing relative of it speaks all the births (jániman) of the gods; he bore up the bráhman from the midst of the bráhman; downward, upward, he set forth unto the svadhā́s.

For he of the heaven, he of the earth the right-stander, fixed (skabh) [as his] abode (kṣéma) the (two) great firmaments (ródasī) the great one, when born, fixed apart the (two) great ones, the heaven [as] seat (sádman) and the earthly space (rájas).

He from the fundamental birth (janús) hath attained (aç) unto (abhi) the summit; Brihaspati, the universal ruler, [is] the divinity of him; since the bright (çukrá) day was born of light, then let the shining (dyumánt) seers (vípra) fade out (? vi-vas) ⌊shine out?⌋.

Verily doth the kāvyá further (hi) that of him—the abode (? dhā́man) of the great god of old (pūrvyá); he was born together with many thus, sleeping now in the loosened (vi-si) eastern half.

Whoso shall approach (? ava-gam) with homage father Atharvan, relative of the gods, Brihaspati—in order that thou mayest be generator of all, poet, god, not to be harmed, self-ruling (? svadhā́vant).
