RV 4.38.9

उत स्मास्य पनयन्ति जना जूतिं कृष्टिप्रो अभिभूतिम् आशोः । उतैनम् आहुः समिथे वियन्तः परा दधिक्रा असरत् सहस्रैः ॥

uta smāsya panayanti janā jūtiṃ kṛṣṭipro abhibhūtim āśoḥ | utainam āhuḥ samithe viyantaḥ parā dadhikrā asarat sahasraiḥ ||

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

The people praise the overpowering swiftness of this fleet Steed who giveth men abundance. Of him they say when drawing back from battle. Dadhikras hath sped forward with his thousands.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
