Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 1.121.8

RV 1.121.8

अष्टा महो दिव आदो हरी इह द्युम्नासाहम् अभि योधान उत्सम् । हरिं यत् ते मन्दिनं दुक्षन् वृधे गोरभसम् अद्रिभिर् वाताप्यम् ॥

aṣṭā maho diva ādo harī iha dyumnāsāham abhi yodhāna utsam | hariṃ yat te mandinaṃ dukṣan vṛdhe gorabhasam adribhir vātāpyam ||

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

Eight steeds thou broughtest down from mighty heaven, when fighting for the well that giveth splendour, That men might press with stones the gladdening yellow, strengthened with milk, fermenting, to exalt thee.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
