RV 7.56.16 — Ṛgveda Saṃhitā

RV 7.56.16

अत्यासो न ये मरुतः स्वञ्चो यक्षदृशो न शुभयन्त मर्याः । ते हर्म्येष्ठाः शिशवो न शुभ्रा वत्सासो न प्रक्रीळिनः पयोधाः ॥

atyāso na ye marutaḥ svañco yakṣadṛśo na śubhayanta maryāḥ | te harmyeṣṭhāḥ śiśavo na śubhrā vatsāso na prakrīḷinaḥ payodhāḥ ||

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

The Maruts, fleet as coursers, while they deck them like youths spectators of a festal meeting, Linger, like beauteous colts, about the dwelling, like frisking calves, these who pour down the water.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
