जीमूतस्येव भवति प्रतीकं यद् वर्मी याति समदाम् उपस्थे । अनाविद्धया तन्वा जय त्वꣳ स त्वा वर्मणो महिमा पिपर्तु ॥
jīmūtasyeva bhavati pratīkaṃ yad varmī yāti samadām upasthe | anāviddhayā tanvā jaya tvam̐ sa tvā varmaṇo mahimā pipartu ||
Roman (IAST) transliteration rendered by HREEM from the edition's Devanagari; the Devanagari is the edition's own.
The warrior's look is like a thunderous rain-cloud's, when, armed with mail, he seeks the lap of battle. Be thou victorious with unwounded body: so let the thickness of thy mail protect thee.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)This is the translator's rendering of the same verse where it occurs at RV 6.75.1; the wording of this text may differ in places.
