RV 4.1.12

प्र शर्ध आर्त प्रथमं विपन्यां ऋतस्य योना वृषभस्य नीळे । स्पार्हो युवा वपुष्यो विभावा सप्त प्रियासो ऽजनयन्त वृष्णे ॥

pra śardha ārta prathamaṃ vipanyāṃ ṛtasya yonā vṛṣabhasya nīḷe | spārho yuvā vapuṣyo vibhāvā sapta priyāso 'janayanta vṛṣṇe ||

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

Wondrously first he rose aloft, defiant, in the Bull's lair, the home of holy Order, Longed-for, young, beautiful, and far-resplendent: and seven dear friends sprang up unto the Mighty.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
