RV 1.52.10

द्यौश् चिद् अस्यामवां अहेः स्वनाद् अयोयवीद् भियसा वज्र इन्द्र ते । वृत्रस्य यद् बद्बधानस्य रोदसी मदे सुतस्य शवसाभिनच् छिरः ॥

dyauś cid asyāmavāṃ aheḥ svanād ayoyavīd bhiyasā vajra indra te | vṛtrasya yad badbadhānasya rodasī made sutasya śavasābhinac chiraḥ ||

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

Then Heaven himself, the mighty, at that Dragon's roar reeled back in terror when, Indra, thy thunderbolt In the wild joy of Soma had struck off with might the head of Vrtra, tyrant of the earth and heaven.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
