Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 7.8.1

RV 7.8.1

इन्धे राजा सम् अर्यो नमोभिर् यस्य प्रतीकम् आहुतं घृतेन । नरो हव्येभिर् ईळते सबाध आग्निर् अग्र उषसाम् अशोचि ॥

indhe rājā sam aryo namobhir yasya pratīkam āhutaṃ ghṛtena | naro havyebhir īḷate sabādha āgnir agra uṣasām aśoci ||

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

The King whose face is decked with oil is kindled with homage offered by his faithful servant. The men, the priests adore him with oblations. Agni hath shone forth when the dawn is breaking.
