RV 1.104.8

मा नो वधीर् इन्द्र मा परा दा मा नः प्रिया भोजनानि प्र मोषीः । आण्डा मा नो मघवञ् छक्र निर् भेन् मा नः पात्रा भेत् सहजानुषाणि ॥

mā no vadhīr indra mā parā dā mā naḥ priyā bhojanāni pra moṣīḥ | āṇḍā mā no maghavañ chakra nir bhen mā naḥ pātrā bhet sahajānuṣāṇi ||

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

Slay us not, Indra; do not thou forsake us: steal not away the joys which we delight in. Rend not our unborn brood, strong Lord of Bounty! our vessels with the life that is within them.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
