Rigveda 7.59.12 (Maha Mrityunjaya)
ॐ त्र्यम्बकं यजामहे सुगन्धिं पुष्टिवर्धनम् । उर्वारुकमिव बन्धनान् मृत्योर्मुक्षीय मामृतात् ॥
Oṃ tryambakaṃ yajāmahe sugandhiṃ puṣṭivardhanam · urvārukam iva bandhanān mṛtyor mukṣīya māmṛtāt
We worship the three-eyed one (Shiva) who is fragrant and nourishes all; like the cucumber is severed from its vine, may I be liberated from death, not from immortality.
