Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 20.12.4

AVŚ 20.12.4

आपश् चित् पिप्यु स्तर्यो न गावो नक्षन्न् ऋतं जरितारस् त इन्द्र । याहि वायुर् न नियुतो नो अछा त्वं हि धीभिर् दयसे वि वाजान् ॥४॥

āpaś cit pipyu staryo na gāvo nakṣann ṛtaṃ jaritāras ta indra | yāhi vāyur na niyuto no achā tvaṃ hi dhībhir dayase vi vājān ||4||

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

Like barren cows, moreover, swelled the waters: the singers sought thy holy rite, O Indra. Come unto us as with his team comes Vayu: thou, through our solemn hymns bestowest booty.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)This is the translator's rendering of the same verse where it occurs at RV 7.23.4; the wording of this text may differ in places.
