RV 1.117.17

शतम् मेषान् वृक्ये मामहानं तमः प्रणीतम् अशिवेन पित्रा । आक्षी ऋज्राश्वे अश्विनाव् अधत्तं ज्योतिर् अन्धाय चक्रथुर् विचक्षे ॥

śatam meṣān vṛkye māmahānaṃ tamaḥ praṇītam aśivena pitrā | ākṣī ṛjrāśve aśvināv adhattaṃ jyotir andhāya cakrathur vicakṣe ||

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

He whom for furnishing a hundred wethers to the she-wolf, his wicked father blinded,-- To him, Rjrasva, gave ye eyes, O Asvins; light to the blind ye sent for perfect vision.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
