मृगो न भीमः कुचरो गिरिष्ठाः परावत आ जगम्यात् परस्याः । सृकं संशाय पविम् इन्द्र तिग्मं वि शत्रून् ताढि वि मृधो नुदस्व ॥३॥
mṛgo na bhīmaḥ kucaro giriṣṭhāḥ parāvata ā jagamyāt parasyāḥ | sṛkaṃ saṃśāya pavim indra tigmaṃ vi śatrūn tāḍhi vi mṛdho nudasva ||3||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
Like a dread wild beast roaming on the mountain thou hast approached us from the farthest distance. Whetting thy bold and thy sharp blade, O Indra, crush thou the foe and scatter those who hate us.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)This is the translator's rendering of the same verse where it occurs at RV 10.180.2; the wording of this text may differ in places.
