6.23.1

सस्रुषीस्तदपसो दिवा नक्तं च सस्रुषीः ।
वरेण्यक्रतुरहमपो देवीरुप ह्वये ॥ ६.२३.१ ॥

Those flowing waters that flow by day and by night — I, of excellent purpose, call upon the divine Āpaḥ.

ओता आपः कर्मण्या मुञ्चन्त्वितः प्रणीतये ।
सद्यः कृण्वन्त्वेतवे ॥ ६.२३.२ ॥

Pervading like woven threads, may the active waters release us from here to lead us forward; may they at once make the way passable.

देवस्य सवितुः सवे कर्म कृण्वन्तु मानुषाः ।
शं नो भवन्त्वप ओषधीः शिवाः ॥ ६.२३.३ ॥

In the impulse of the god Savitṛ, may humans perform their work; may the waters and plants be peaceful and kind to us.
