ā́yane te parā́yane dū́rvā rohantu puṣpíṇīḥ |
útso vā tátra jā́yatām hradó vā puṇḍárīkavān ||1||
In thy course hither, [thy] course away, let the flowery dū́rvā grow; either let a fountain spring up there, or a pond rich in lotuses.
6.106.2
apā́m idáṃ nyáyanaṃ samudrásya nivéśanam |
mádhye hradásya no gr̥hā́ḥ parācī́nā múkhā kr̥dhi ||2||
This is the down-course of the waters, the abode (nivéçana) of the ocean; in the midst of a pool are our houses: turn thy faces away.

himásya tvā jarā́yuṇā śā́le pári vyayāmasi |
śītáhradā hí no bhúvo 'gníṣ kr̥ṇotu bheṣajám ||3||
With a fetal envelop of snow, O house, do we envelop thee; for mayest thou be for us having a cool pond; let Agni make a remedy.
