RV 9.89.3

सिंहं नसन्त मध्वो अयासं हरिम् अरुषं दिवो अस्य पतिम् । शूरो युत्सु प्रथमः पृच्छते गा अस्य चक्षसा परि पात्य् उक्षा ॥

siṃhaṃ nasanta madhvo ayāsaṃ harim aruṣaṃ divo asya patim | śūro yutsu prathamaḥ pṛcchate gā asya cakṣasā pari pāty ukṣā ||

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

They come to him, red, tawny, Lord of Heaven, the watchful Guardian of the meath, the Lion. First, Hero in the fight, he seeks the cattle, and with his eye the Steer is our protector.
