Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 1.140.6

RV 1.140.6

भूषन् न यो ऽधि बभ्रूषु नम्नते वृषेव पत्नीर् अभ्य् एति रोरुवत् । ओजायमानस् तन्वश् च शुम्भते भीमो न शृङ्गा दविधाव दुर्गृभिः ॥

bhūṣan na yo 'dhi babhrūṣu namnate vṛṣeva patnīr abhy eti roruvat | ojāyamānas tanvaś ca śumbhate bhīmo na śṛṅgā davidhāva durgṛbhiḥ ||

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

Amid brown plants he stoops as if adorning them, and rushes bellowing like a bull upon his wives. Proving his might, he decks the glory of his form, and shakes his horns like one terrific, hard to stay.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
