Atharva Veda: Book 6: Hymn 68: A charm to accompany the shaving of the beard
Hymns of the Atharva Veda, by Ralph T.H. Griffith, [1895]
1Savitar hath come hither with the razor: come thou, O Vāyu,
with the heated water.
One-minded let Ādityas, Rudras, Vasus moisten the hair: shave
ye who know King Soma.
2Let Aditi shave the beard, and let the Waters bathe it with their
strength: p. a232
Prajāpati restore his health for sight and days of lengthened life!
3The razor used by Savitar, for shaving, who knoweth Varuna
and royal Soma,
Even with this shave ye this man, O Brāhman. Let him be rich
in horses, kine, and children.
