RV 10.78.1

विप्रासो न मन्मभिः स्वाध्यो देवाव्यो न यज्ञैः स्वप्नसः । राजानो न चित्राः सुसंदृशः क्षितीनां न मर्या अरेपसः ॥

viprāso na manmabhiḥ svādhyo devāvyo na yajñaiḥ svapnasaḥ | rājāno na citrāḥ susaṃdṛśaḥ kṣitīnāṃ na maryā arepasaḥ ||

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

Ye by your hymns are like high-thoughted singers, skillful, inviting Gods with sacrifices; Fair to behold, like Kings, with bright adornment, like spotless gallants, leaders of the people:

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
