AVŚ 20.50.1

कन् नव्यो अतसीनां तुरो गृणीत मर्त्यः । नही न्व् अस्य महिमानम् इन्द्रियं स्वर् गृणन्त आनशुः ॥१॥

kan navyo atasīnāṃ turo gṛṇīta martyaḥ | nahī nv asya mahimānam indriyaṃ svar gṛṇanta ānaśuḥ ||1||

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

What newest of imploring prayers shall, then, the zealous mortal sing? For have not they who laud his might, and Indra-power won for themselves the light of heaven?

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)This is the translator's rendering of the same verse where it occurs at RV 8.3.13; the wording of this text may differ in places.
