Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 7.4.8

RV 7.4.8

नहि ग्रभायारणः सुशेवो ऽन्योदर्यो मनसा मन्तवा उ । अधा चिद् ओकः पुनर् इत् स एत्य् आ नो वाज्य् अभीषाळ् एतु नव्यः ॥

nahi grabhāyāraṇaḥ suśevo 'nyodaryo manasā mantavā u | adhā cid okaḥ punar it sa ety ā no vājy abhīṣāḷ etu navyaḥ ||

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

Unwelcome for adoption is the stranger, one to be thought of as another's offspring, Though grown familiar by continual presence. May our strong hero come, freshly triumphant.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
