RV 6.65.1

एषा स्या नो दुहिता दिवोजाः क्षितीर् उच्छन्ती मानुषीर् अजीगः । या भानुना रुशता राम्यास्व् अज्ञायि तिरस् तमसश् चिद् अक्तून् ॥

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

Shedding her light on human habitations this Child of Heaven hath called us from our slumber; She who at night-time with her argent lustre hath shown herself e'en through the shades of darkness.
