VS 17.44

अमीषां चित्तं प्रतिलोभयन्ती गृहाणाङ्गान्य् अप्वे परेहि । अभि प्रेहि निर् दह हृत्सु शोकैर् अन्धेनामित्रास् तमसा सचन्ताम् ॥

amīṣāṃ cittaṃ pratilobhayantī gṛhāṇāṅgāny apve parehi | abhi prehi nir daha hṛtsu śokair andhenāmitrās tamasā sacantām ||

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

Bewildering the senses of our foemen, seize thou their bodies and depart, O Apva. Attack them, set their hearts on fire and burn them: so let our foes abide in utter darkness.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)This is the translator's rendering of the same verse where it occurs at RV 10.103.12; the wording of this text may differ in places.
