Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 2.11.18

RV 2.11.18

धिष्वा शवः शूर येन वृत्रम् अवाभिनद् दानुम् और्णवाभम् । अपावृणोर् ज्योतिर् आर्याय नि सव्यतः सादि दस्युर् इन्द्र ॥

dhiṣvā śavaḥ śūra yena vṛtram avābhinad dānum aurṇavābham | apāvṛṇor jyotir āryāya ni savyataḥ sādi dasyur indra ||

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

Hero, assume the might wherewith thou clavest Vrtra piecemeal, the Danava Aurnavabha. Thou hast disclosed the light to light the Arya: on thy left hand, O Indra, sank the Dasyu.
