RV 10.121.1

हिरण्यगर्भः सम् अवर्तताग्रे भूतस्य जातः पतिर् एक आसीत् । स दाधार पृथिवीं द्याम् उतेमां कस्मै देवाय हविषा विधेम ॥

hiraṇyagarbhaḥ sam avartatāgre bhūtasya jātaḥ patir eka āsīt | sa dādhāra pṛthivīṃ dyām utemāṃ kasmai devāya haviṣā vidhema ||

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

In the beginning rose Hiranyagarbha, born Only Lord of all created beings. He fixed and holdeth up this earth and heaven. What God shall we adore with our oblation?

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
