Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 10.123.4

RV 10.123.4

जानन्तो रूपम् अकृपन्त विप्रा मृगस्य घोषम् महिषस्य हि ग्मन् । ऋतेन यन्तो अधि सिन्धुम् अस्थुर् विदद् गन्धर्वो अमृतानि नाम ॥

jānanto rūpam akṛpanta viprā mṛgasya ghoṣam mahiṣasya hi gman | ṛtena yanto adhi sindhum asthur vidad gandharvo amṛtāni nāma ||

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

Knowing his form, the sages yearned to meet him: they have come nigh to hear the wild Bull's bellow. Performing sacrifice they reached the river: for the Gandharva found the immortal waters.
