RV 8.20.20

साहा ये सन्ति मुष्टिहेव हव्यो विश्वासु पृत्सु होतृषु । वृष्णश् चन्द्रान् न सुश्रवस्तमान् गिरा वन्दस्व मरुतो अह ॥

sāhā ye santi muṣṭiheva havyo viśvāsu pṛtsu hotṛṣu | vṛṣṇaś candrān na suśravastamān girā vandasva maruto aha ||

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

Who, like a celebrated boxer, overcome the challengers in every fight: They who, like shining bulls, are most illustrious-honour those Maruts with thy song.
