RV 5.11.1

जनस्य गोपा अजनिष्ट जागृविर् अग्निः सुदक्षः सुविताय नव्यसे । घृतप्रतीको बृहता दिविस्पृशा द्युमद् वि भाति भरतेभ्यः शुचिः ॥

janasya gopā ajaniṣṭa jāgṛvir agniḥ sudakṣaḥ suvitāya navyase | ghṛtapratīko bṛhatā divispṛśā dyumad vi bhāti bharatebhyaḥ śuciḥ ||

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

The watchful Guardian of the people hath been born, Agni, the very strong, for fresh prosperity. With oil upon his face, with high heaven touching flame, he shineth splendidly, pure, for the Bharatas.
