RV 2.27.9

त्री रोचना दिव्या धारयन्त हिरण्ययाः शुचयो धारपूताः । अस्वप्नजो अनिमिषा अदब्धा उरुशंसा ऋजवे मर्त्याय ॥

trī rocanā divyā dhārayanta hiraṇyayāḥ śucayo dhārapūtāḥ | asvapnajo animiṣā adabdhā uruśaṃsā ṛjave martyāya ||

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

Golden and splendid, pure like streams of water, they hold aloft the three bright heavenly regions. Ne'er do they slumber, never close their eyelids, faithful, far-ruling for the righteous mortal.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
