Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 2.5.3

RV 2.5.3

दधन्वे वा यद् ईम् अनु वोचद् ब्रह्माणि वेर् उ तत् । परि विश्वानि काव्या नेमिश् चक्रम् इवाभवत् ॥

dadhanve vā yad īm anu vocad brahmāṇi ver u tat | pari viśvāni kāvyā nemiś cakram ivābhavat ||

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

When swift he follows this behest, bird-like he chants the holy prayers. He holds all knowledge in his grasp even as the felly rounds the wheel.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
