RV 1.59.4 — Ṛgveda Saṃhitā

RV 1.59.4

बृहती इव सूनवे रोदसी गिरो होता मनुष्यो न दक्षः । स्वर्वते सत्यशुष्माय पूर्वीर् वैश्वानराय नृतमाय यह्वीः ॥

bṛhatī iva sūnave rodasī giro hotā manuṣyo na dakṣaḥ | svarvate satyaśuṣmāya pūrvīr vaiśvānarāya nṛtamāya yahvīḥ ||

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

As the great World-halves, so are their Son's praises; skilled, as a man, to act, is he the Herald. Vaisvanara, celestial, truly mighty, most manly One, hath many a youthful consort.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
