RV 8.3.20

निर् अग्नयो रुरुचुर् निर् उ सूर्यो निः सोम इन्द्रियो रसः । निर् अन्तरिक्षाद् अधमो महाम् अहिं कृषे तद् इन्द्र पौंस्यम् ॥

nir agnayo rurucur nir u sūryo niḥ soma indriyo rasaḥ | nir antarikṣād adhamo mahām ahiṃ kṛṣe tad indra pauṃsyam ||

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

Bright were the flaming fires, the Sun gave forth his shine, and Soma, Indra's juice, shone clear. Indra, thou blewest the great Dragon from the air -. men must regard that valorous deed.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
