RV 5.56.3

मीळ्हुष्मतीव पृथिवी पराहता मदन्त्य् एत्य् अस्मद् आ । ऋक्षो न वो मरुतः शिमीवां अमो दुध्रो गौर् इव भीमयुः ॥

mīḷhuṣmatīva pṛthivī parāhatā madanty ety asmad ā | ṛkṣo na vo marutaḥ śimīvāṃ amo dudhro gaur iva bhīmayuḥ ||

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

Earth, like a bounteous lady, liberal of her gifts, struck down and shaken, yet exultant, comes to us. Impetuous as a bear, O Maruts, is you rush terrible as a dreadful bull..

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
