RV 5.59.2

अमाद् एषाम् भियसा भूमिर् एजति नौर् न पूर्णा क्षरति व्यथिर् यती । दूरेदृशो ये चितयन्त एमभिर् अन्तर् महे विदथे येतिरे नरः ॥

amād eṣām bhiyasā bhūmir ejati naur na pūrṇā kṣarati vyathir yatī | dūredṛśo ye citayanta emabhir antar mahe vidathe yetire naraḥ ||

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

Earth shakes and reels in terror at their onward rush, like a full ship which, quivering, lets the water in. Marked on their ways are they, visible from afar: the Heroes press between in mighty armament.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
