Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 1.48.8

RV 1.48.8

विश्वम् अस्या नानाम चक्षसे जगज् ज्योतिष् कृणोति सूनरी । अप द्वेषो मघोनी दुहिता दिव उषा उच्छद् अप स्रिधः ॥

viśvam asyā nānāma cakṣase jagaj jyotiṣ kṛṇoti sūnarī | apa dveṣo maghonī duhitā diva uṣā ucchad apa sridhaḥ ||

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

To meet her glance all living creatures bend them down: Excellent One, she makes the light. Usas, the Daughter of the Sky, the opulent, shines foes and enmities away.
