Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 9.69.1

RV 9.69.1

इषुर् न धन्वन् प्रति धीयते मतिर् वत्सो न मातुर् उप सर्ज्य् ऊधनि । उरुधारेव दुहे अग्र आयत्य् अस्य व्रतेष्व् अपि सोम इष्यते ॥

iṣur na dhanvan prati dhīyate matir vatso na mātur upa sarjy ūdhani | urudhāreva duhe agra āyaty asya vrateṣv api soma iṣyate ||

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

Laid like an arrow on the bow the hymn hath been loosed like a young calf to the udder of its dam. As one who cometh first with full stream she is milked the Soma is impelled to this man's holy rites.
