Mantra
Devanagari:
विश्वभेषजीः देवं आपः गीर्भिर्हवामहे वयम्
स नः पर्षदति द्विषो नावेव सिन्धुं दुरिता
वयं स्याम पतयो रयीणां सुवीराः
Transliteration:
Vishvabheshajih Devam Apah Girbhirhavamahe Vayam
Sa Nah Parshadati Dvisho Naveva Sindhum Durita
Vayam Syama Patayo Rayinam Suvirah
Translation:
With sacred songs we invoke the radiant God Apah, universal medicines that wash away all ills;
May He ferry us across all hostilities and sins like a boat across a river,
And may we, blessed with noble heroes, be lords of spiritual treasures.
