RV 9.74.4

आत्मन्वन् नभो दुह्यते घृतम् पय ऋतस्य नाभिर् अमृतं वि जायते । समीचीनाः सुदानवः प्रीणन्ति तं नरो हितम् अव मेहन्ति पेरवः ॥

ātmanvan nabho duhyate ghṛtam paya ṛtasya nābhir amṛtaṃ vi jāyate | samīcīnāḥ sudānavaḥ prīṇanti taṃ naro hitam ava mehanti peravaḥ ||

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

Butter and milk are drawn from animated cloud; thence Amrta is produced, centre of sacrifice. Him the Most Bounteous Ones, ever united, love; him as our Friend the Men who make all swell rain down.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
