Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 1.164.38

RV 1.164.38

अपाङ् प्राङ् एति स्वधया गृभीतो ऽमर्त्यो मर्त्येना सयोनिः । ता शश्वन्ता विषूचीना वियन्ता न्य् अन्यं चिक्युर् न नि चिक्युर् अन्यम् ॥

apāṅ prāṅ eti svadhayā gṛbhīto 'martyo martyenā sayoniḥ | tā śaśvantā viṣūcīnā viyantā ny anyaṃ cikyur na ni cikyur anyam ||

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

Back, forward goes he, grasped by strength inherent, the Immortal born the brother of the mortal Ceaseless they move in opposite directions: men mark the one, and fail to mark the other.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
