VS 23.61

पृच्छामि त्वा परम् अन्तं पृथिव्याः पृच्छामि यत्र भुवनस्य नाभिः । पृच्छामि त्वा वृष्णो ऽ अश्वस्य रेतः पृच्छामि वाचः परमं व्योम ॥

pṛcchāmi tvā param antaṃ pṛthivyāḥ pṛcchāmi yatra bhuvanasya nābhiḥ | pṛcchāmi tvā vṛṣṇo ' aśvasya retaḥ pṛcchāmi vācaḥ paramaṃ vyoma ||

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

I ask thee of the earth's extremest limit, where is the centre of the world, I ask thee. I ask thee of the Stallion's seed prolific, I ask of highest heaven where Speech abideth.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)This is the translator's rendering of the same verse where it occurs at RV 1.164.34; the wording of this text may differ in places.
