Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 5.2.4

RV 5.2.4

क्षेत्राद् अपश्यं सनुतश् चरन्तं सुमद् यूथं न पुरु शोभमानम् । न ता अगृभ्रन्न् अजनिष्ट हि षः पलिक्नीर् इद् युवतयो भवन्ति ॥

kṣetrād apaśyaṃ sanutaś carantaṃ sumad yūthaṃ na puru śobhamānam | na tā agṛbhrann ajaniṣṭa hi ṣaḥ paliknīr id yuvatayo bhavanti ||

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

I saw him moving from the place he dwells in, even as with a herd, brilliantly shining. These seized him not: he had been born already. They who were grey with age again grow youthful.
