RV 4.1.17

नेशत् तमो दुधितं रोचत द्यौर् उद् देव्या उषसो भानुर् अर्त । आ सूर्यो बृहतस् तिष्ठद् अज्रां ऋजु मर्तेषु वृजिना च पश्यन् ॥

neśat tamo dudhitaṃ rocata dyaur ud devyā uṣaso bhānur arta | ā sūryo bṛhatas tiṣṭhad ajrāṃ ṛju marteṣu vṛjinā ca paśyan ||

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

The turbid darkness fled, the heaven was splendid! up rose the bright beam of celestial Morning. Surya ascended to the wide expanses, beholding deeds of men both good and evil.
