RV 8.20.4

वि द्वीपानि पापतन् तिष्ठद् दुच्छुनोभे युजन्त रोदसी । प्र धन्वान्य् ऐरत शुभ्रखादयो यद् एजथ स्वभानवः ॥

vi dvīpāni pāpatan tiṣṭhad ducchunobhe yujanta rodasī | pra dhanvāny airata śubhrakhādayo yad ejatha svabhānavaḥ ||

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

Islands are bursting forth and misery is stayed: the heaven and earth are joined in one. Decked with bright rings, ye spread the broad expanses out, when ye, Self. luminous, stirred yourselves.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
