Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 1.31.4

RV 1.31.4

त्वम् अग्ने मनवे द्याम् अवाशयः पुरूरवसे सुकृते सुकृत्तरः । श्वात्रेण यत् पित्रोर् मुच्यसे पर्य् आ त्वा पूर्वम् अनयन्न् आपरम् पुनः ॥

tvam agne manave dyām avāśayaḥ purūravase sukṛte sukṛttaraḥ | śvātreṇa yat pitror mucyase pary ā tvā pūrvam anayann āparam punaḥ ||

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

Agni thou madest heaven to thunder for mankind; thou, yet more pious, for pious Pururavas. When thou art rapidly freed from thy parents, first eastward they bear thee round, and, after, to the west.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
