AVŚ 6.49.3

सुपर्णा वाचम् अक्रतोप द्यव्य् आखरे कृष्णा इषिरा अनर्तिषुः । नि यन् नियन्ति उपरस्य निष्कृतिं पुरू रेतो दधिरे सूर्यश्रितः ॥३॥

suparṇā vācam akratopa dyavy ākhare kṛṣṇā iṣirā anartiṣuḥ | ni yan niyanti uparasya niṣkṛtiṃ purū reto dadhire sūryaśritaḥ ||3||

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

The eagles have uttered (kṛ) their voice close in the sky; in the lair (ākhará) the black lively ones have danced; when they come down to the removal of the lower [stone], they have assumed much seed, they that resort to the sun.
