Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 6.9.6

RV 6.9.6

वि मे कर्णा पतयतो वि चक्षुर् वीदं ज्योतिर् हृदय आहितं यत् । वि मे मनश् चरति दूरआधीः किं स्विद् वक्ष्यामि किम् उ नू मनिष्ये ॥

vi me karṇā patayato vi cakṣur vīdaṃ jyotir hṛdaya āhitaṃ yat | vi me manaś carati dūraādhīḥ kiṃ svid vakṣyāmi kim u nū maniṣye ||

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

Mine ears unclose to hear, mine eye to see him; the light that harbours in my spirit broadens. Far roams my mind whose thoughts are in the distance. What shall I speak, what shall I now imagine?

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
