Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 1.132.5

RV 1.132.5

सं यज् जनान् क्रतुभिः शूर ईक्षयद् धने हिते तरुषन्त श्रवस्यवः प्र यक्षन्त श्रवस्यवः । तस्मा आयुः प्रजावद् इद् बाधे अर्चन्त्य् ओजसा । इन्द्र ओक्यं दिधिषन्त धीतयो देवां अच्छा न धीतयः ॥

saṃ yaj janān kratubhiḥ śūra īkṣayad dhane hite taruṣanta śravasyavaḥ pra yakṣanta śravasyavaḥ | tasmā āyuḥ prajāvad id bādhe arcanty ojasā | indra okyaṃ didhiṣanta dhītayo devāṃ acchā na dhītayaḥ ||

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

When with wise plan the Hero leads the people forth, they conquer in the ordered battle, seeking fame, press, eager, onward seeking fame. To him in time of need they sing for life with offspring and with strength. Their hymns with Indra find a welcome place of rest: the hymns go forward to the Gods.
