AVŚ 20.116.1
मा भूम निष्ट्या इवेन्द्र त्वद् अरणा इव । वनानि नि प्रजहितान्य् अद्रिवो दुरोषासो अमन्महि ॥१॥
mā bhūma niṣṭyā ivendra tvad araṇā iva | vanāni ni prajahitāny adrivo duroṣāso amanmahi ||1||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
May we be never cast aside, and strangers, as it were, to thee. We, Thunder-wielding Indra, count ourselves as trees rejected and unfit to burn.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)This is the translator's rendering of the same verse where it occurs at RV 8.1.13; the wording of this text may differ in places.
