RV 4.40.2

सत्वा भरिषो गविषो दुवन्यसच् छ्रवस्याद् इष उषसस् तुरण्यसत् । सत्यो द्रवो द्रवरः पतङ्गरो दधिक्रावेषम् ऊर्जं स्वर् जनत् ॥

satvā bhariṣo gaviṣo duvanyasac chravasyād iṣa uṣasas turaṇyasat | satyo dravo dravaraḥ pataṅgaro dadhikrāveṣam ūrjaṃ svar janat ||

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

Brave, seeking war and booty, dwelling with the good and with the swift, may he hasten the food of Dawn. May he the true, the fleet, the lover of the course, the bird-like Dadhikravan, bring food, strength, and light.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
