Rig Veda

  1. FILLING our hearts with health and joy, may Vāta breathe his balm on us May he prolong our days of life. 2 Thou art our Father, Vāta, yea, thou art a Brother and a friend, So give us strength that we may live. 3 The store of Amṛta laid away yonder, O Vāta, in thine home,— Give us thereof that we may live.
