Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 4.16.3

RV 4.16.3

कविर् न निण्यं विदथानि साधन् वृषा यत् सेकं विपिपानो अर्चात् । दिव इत्था जीजनत् सप्त कारून् अह्ना चिच् चक्रुर् वयुना गृणन्तः ॥

kavir na niṇyaṃ vidathāni sādhan vṛṣā yat sekaṃ vipipāno arcāt | diva itthā jījanat sapta kārūn ahnā cic cakrur vayunā gṛṇantaḥ ||

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

When the Bull, quaffing, praises our libation, as a sage paying holy rites in secret, Seven singers here from heaven hath he begotten, who e'en by day have wrought their works while singing.
