Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 2.3.9

RV 2.3.9

पिशङ्गरूपः सुभरो वयोधाः श्रुष्टी वीरो जायते देवकामः । प्रजां त्वष्टा वि ष्यतु नाभिम् अस्मे अथा देवानाम् अप्य् एतु पाथः ॥

piśaṅgarūpaḥ subharo vayodhāḥ śruṣṭī vīro jāyate devakāmaḥ | prajāṃ tvaṣṭā vi ṣyatu nābhim asme athā devānām apy etu pāthaḥ ||

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

Born is the pious hero swift of hearing, like gold in hue, well formed, and full of vigour. May Tvastar lengthen our line and kindred, and may they reach the place which Gods inhabit.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
