RV 7.88.2

अधा न्व् अस्य संदृशं जगन्वान् अग्नेर् अनीकं वरुणस्य मंसि । स्वर् यद् अश्मन्न् अधिपा उ अन्धो ऽभि मा वपुर् दृशये निनीयात् ॥

adhā nv asya saṃdṛśaṃ jaganvān agner anīkaṃ varuṇasya maṃsi | svar yad aśmann adhipā u andho 'bhi mā vapur dṛśaye ninīyāt ||

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

And now, as I am come before his presence, I take the face of Varuna for Agni's. So might he bring-Lord also of the darkness-the light in heaven that I may see its beauty!

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
