Atharva Veda 7.9: A prayer to Pūshan for protection and the recovery of lost property

Pūshan was born to move on distant pathways, on roads remote from earth, remote from heaven.
To both most lovely places of assembly he travels and returns with perfect knowledge.

Pūshan knows all these realms: may he conduct us by ways that are most free from fear and danger.
Giver of blessings, glowing, all heroic, may he the wise and watchful go before us.

We are thy praisers here, O Pūshan: never let us be injured under thy protection.

From out the distance, far and wide, may Pūshan stretch his right hand forth.
Let him drive back our lost to us, let us return with what is lost.
