Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 6.38.1

AVŚ 6.38.1

सिंहे व्याघ्र उत या पृदाकौ त्विषिर् अग्नौ ब्राह्मणे सूर्ये या । इन्द्रं या देवी सुभगा जजान सा न ऐतु वर्चसा संविदाना ॥१॥

siṃhe vyāghra uta yā pṛdākau tviṣir agnau brāhmaṇe sūrye yā | indraṃ yā devī subhagā jajāna sā na aitu varcasā saṃvidānā ||1||

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

What brilliancy (tvíṣi) is in lion, in tiger, and what in adder, in fire, in the Brāhman, what in the sun: the fortunate goddess that gave birth to Indra—let her come to us, in union with splendor.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
