RV 6.8.1

पृक्षस्य वृष्णो अरुषस्य नू सहः प्र नु वोचं विदथा जातवेदसः । वैश्वानराय मतिर् नव्यसी शुचिः सोम इव पवते चारुर् अग्नये ॥

pṛkṣasya vṛṣṇo aruṣasya nū sahaḥ pra nu vocaṃ vidathā jātavedasaḥ | vaiśvānarāya matir navyasī śuciḥ soma iva pavate cārur agnaye ||

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

At Jatavedas' holy gathering I will tell aloud the conquering might of the swift red-hued Steer. A pure and fresher hymn flows to Vaisvanara, even as for Agni lovely Soma is made pure.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
