Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 9.70.7

RV 9.70.7

रुवति भीमो वृषभस् तविष्यया शृङ्गे शिशानो हरिणी विचक्षणः । आ योनिं सोमः सुकृतं नि षीदति गव्ययी त्वग् भवति निर्णिग् अव्ययी ॥

ruvati bhīmo vṛṣabhas taviṣyayā śṛṅge śiśāno hariṇī vicakṣaṇaḥ | ā yoniṃ somaḥ sukṛtaṃ ni ṣīdati gavyayī tvag bhavati nirṇig avyayī ||

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

The fearful Bull is bellowing with violent might, far-sighted, sharpening his yellow coloured horns. Soma assumes his seat in the well-fashioned place: the cowhide and the sheepskin are his ornament.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
