RV 6.72.2

इन्द्रासोमा वासयथ उषासम् उत् सूर्यं नयथो ज्योतिषा सह । उप द्यां स्कम्भथु स्कम्भनेनाप्रथतम् पृथिवीम् मातरं वि ॥

indrāsomā vāsayatha uṣāsam ut sūryaṃ nayatho jyotiṣā saha | upa dyāṃ skambhathu skambhanenāprathatam pṛthivīm mātaraṃ vi ||

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

Ye, Indra-Soma, gave her light to Morning, and led the Sun on high with all his splendour. Ye stayed the heaven with a supporting pillar, and spread abroad apart, the Earth, the Mother.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
