RV 10.177.2

पतङ्गो वाचम् मनसा बिभर्ति तां गन्धर्वो ऽवदद् गर्भे अन्तः । तां द्योतमानां स्वर्यम् मनीषाम् ऋतस्य पदे कवयो नि पान्ति ॥

pataṅgo vācam manasā bibharti tāṃ gandharvo 'vadad garbhe antaḥ | tāṃ dyotamānāṃ svaryam manīṣām ṛtasya pade kavayo ni pānti ||

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

The flying Bird bears Speech within his spirit: erst the Gandharva in the womb pronounced it: And at the seat of sacrifice the sages cherish this radiant, heavenly-bright invention.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
