RV 2.2.8

स इधान उषसो राम्या अनु स्वर् ण दीदेद् अरुषेण भानुना । होत्राभिर् अग्निर् मनुषः स्वध्वरो राजा विशाम् अतिथिश् चारुर् आयवे ॥

sa idhāna uṣaso rāmyā anu svar ṇa dīded aruṣeṇa bhānunā | hotrābhir agnir manuṣaḥ svadhvaro rājā viśām atithiś cārur āyave ||

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

Enkindled night by night at every morning's dawn, may he shine forth with red flame like the realm of light,- Agni adored in beauteous rites with lauds of men, fair guest of living man and King of all our folk.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
