Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 4.3.5

RV 4.3.5

कथा ह तद् वरुणाय त्वम् अग्ने कथा दिवे गर्हसे कन् न आगः । कथा मित्राय मीळ्हुषे पृथिव्यै ब्रवः कद् अर्यम्णे कद् भगाय ॥

kathā ha tad varuṇāya tvam agne kathā dive garhase kan na āgaḥ | kathā mitrāya mīḷhuṣe pṛthivyai bravaḥ kad aryamṇe kad bhagāya ||

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

Why this complaint to Varuna, O Agni? And why to Heaven? for what is our transgression? How wilt thou speak to Earth and bounteous Mitra? What wilt thou say to Aryaman and Bhaga?

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
