RV 4.16.8

अपो यद् अद्रिम् पुरुहूत दर्दर् आविर् भुवत् सरमा पूर्व्यं ते । स नो नेता वाजम् आ दर्षि भूरिं गोत्रा रुजन्न् अङ्गिरोभिर् गृणानः ॥

apo yad adrim puruhūta dardar āvir bhuvat saramā pūrvyaṃ te | sa no netā vājam ā darṣi bhūriṃ gotrā rujann aṅgirobhir gṛṇānaḥ ||

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

When, Much-invoked! the water's rock thou cleftest, Sarama showed herself and went before thee. Hymned by Angirases, bursting the cowstalls, much strength thou foundest for us as our leader.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
