Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 1.124.7

RV 1.124.7

अभ्रातेव पुंस एति प्रतीची गर्तारुग् इव सनये धनानाम् । जायेव पत्य उशती सुवासा उषा हस्रेव नि रिणीते अप्सः ॥

abhrāteva puṃsa eti pratīcī gartārug iva sanaye dhanānām | jāyeva patya uśatī suvāsā uṣā hasreva ni riṇīte apsaḥ ||

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

She seeketh men, as she who hath no brother, mounting her car, as 'twere to gather riches. Dawn, like a loving matron for her husband, smiling and well attired, unmasks her beauty.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
