RV 2.30.8

सरस्वति त्वम् अस्मां अविड्ढि मरुत्वती धृषती जेषि शत्रून् । त्यं चिच् छर्धन्तं तविषीयमाणम् इन्द्रो हन्ति वृषभं शण्डिकानाम् ॥

sarasvati tvam asmāṃ aviḍḍhi marutvatī dhṛṣatī jeṣi śatrūn | tyaṃ cic chardhantaṃ taviṣīyamāṇam indro hanti vṛṣabhaṃ śaṇḍikānām ||

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

Sarasvati, protect us: with the Maruts allied thou boldly conquerest our foemen, While Indra does to death the daring chieftain of Sandikas exulting in his prowess.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
