Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 8.1.20

RV 8.1.20

मा त्वा सोमस्य गल्दया सदा याचन्न् अहं गिरा । भूर्णिम् मृगं न सवनेषु चुक्रुधं क ईशानं न याचिषत् ॥

mā tvā somasya galdayā sadā yācann ahaṃ girā | bhūrṇim mṛgaṃ na savaneṣu cukrudhaṃ ka īśānaṃ na yāciṣat ||

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

Let me not, still beseeching thee with earnest song at Soma rites, Anger thee like soma wild beast. Who would not beseech him who hath power to grant his prayer?
