Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 10.10.4

RV 10.10.4

न यत् पुरा चकृमा कद् ध नूनम् ऋता वदन्तो अनृतं रपेम । गन्धर्वो अप्स्व् अप्या च योषा सा नो नाभिः परमं जामि तन् नौ ॥

na yat purā cakṛmā kad dha nūnam ṛtā vadanto anṛtaṃ rapema | gandharvo apsv apyā ca yoṣā sā no nābhiḥ paramaṃ jāmi tan nau ||

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

Shall we do now what we ne'er did aforetime? we who spake righteously now talk impurely? Gandharva in the floods, the Dame of Waters-such is our bond, such our most lofty kinship.
