मो षु वो अस्मद् अभि तानि पौंस्या सना भूवन् द्युम्नानि मोत जारिषुर् अस्मत् पुरोत जारिषुः । यद् वश् चित्रं युगेयुगे नव्यं घोषाद् अमर्त्यम् । अस्मासु तन् मरुतो यच् च दुष्टरं दिधृता यच् च दुष्टरम् ॥२॥

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
Ne'er may these manly deeds of yours for us grow old, never may your bright glories fall into decay, never before our time decay. What deed of yours, new every age, wondrous, surpassing man, rings forth, Whatever, Maruts! may be difficult to gain, grant us, whate'er is hard to gain.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)This is the translator's rendering of the same verse where it occurs at RV 1.139.8; the wording of this text may differ in places.
