RV 7.87.1

रदत् पथो वरुणः सूर्याय प्रार्णांसि समुद्रिया नदीनाम् । सर्गो न सृष्टो अर्वतीर् ऋतायञ् चकार महीर् अवनीर् अहभ्यः ॥

radat patho varuṇaḥ sūryāya prārṇāṃsi samudriyā nadīnām | sargo na sṛṣṭo arvatīr ṛtāyañ cakāra mahīr avanīr ahabhyaḥ ||

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

Varuna cut a pathway out for Surya, and led the watery floods of rivers onward. The Mares, as in a race, speed on in order. He made great channels for the days to follow.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
