RV 4.16.16

तम् इद् व इन्द्रं सुहवं हुवेम यस् ता चकार नर्या पुरूणि । यो मावते जरित्रे गध्यं चिन् मक्षू वाजम् भरति स्पार्हराधाः ॥

tam id va indraṃ suhavaṃ huvema yas tā cakāra naryā purūṇi | yo māvate jaritre gadhyaṃ cin makṣū vājam bharati spārharādhāḥ ||

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

Call we for you that Indra, prompt to listen, him who hath done so much for men's advantage; Who, Lord of envied bounty, to a singer like me brings quickly booty worth the capture.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
