Atharvaveda Samhita — Kanda 7 — Chapter 66

AV 7 66.1

यद्य् अन्तरिक्षे यदि वात आस यदि वृक्षेषु यदि वोलपेषु । यद् अश्रवन् पशव उद्यमानं तद् ब्राह्मणं पुनर् अस्मान् उपैतु

yady antarikṣe yadi vāta āsa yadi vṛkṣeṣu yadi volapeṣu | yad aśravan paśava udyamānaṃ tad brāhmaṇaṃ punar asmān upaitu

Whether it was in the midspace, whether in the wind, whether among the trees, whether in the tufts of grass, what the cattle heard as it was being uttered — let that brahman come back to us again.

Compare with Ralph T.H. Griffith

If it was in the wind or air's mid-region, if it was in the trees or in the bushes, To meet whose utterance forth streamed the cattle, may that. Celestial Power again approach us.

— tr. Ralph T.H. Griffith (1895–96)
