RV 2.38.8

याद्राध्यं वरुणो योनिम् अप्यम् अनिशितं निमिषि जर्भुराणः । विश्वो मार्ताण्डो व्रजम् आ पशुर् गात् स्थशो जन्मानि सविता व्य् आकः ॥

yādrādhyaṃ varuṇo yonim apyam aniśitaṃ nimiṣi jarbhurāṇaḥ | viśvo mārtāṇḍo vrajam ā paśur gāt sthaśo janmāni savitā vy ākaḥ ||

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

With utmost speed, in restless haste at sunset Varuna seeks his watery habitation. Then seeks each bird his nest, each beast his lodging. In due place Savitar hath set each creature.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
