sa hi pu̱rū ci̱d oja̍sā vi̱rukma̍tā̱ dīdyā̍no̱ bhava̍ti druhaṁta̱raḥ pa̍ra̱śur na dru̍haṁta̱raḥ |
vī̱ḻu ci̱d yasya̱ samṛ̍tau̱ śruva̱d vane̍va̱ yat sthi̱ram |
ni̱ḥṣaha̍māṇo yamate̱ nāya̍te dhanvā̱sahā̱ nāya̍te ||

He with his shining glory blazing far and wide, he verily it is who slayeth demon foes, slayeth the demons like an axe: At whose close touch things solid shake, and what is stable yields like trees. Subduing all, he keeps his ground and flinches not, from the skilled archer flinches not.

Ralph T. H. Griffith 1889, The Hymns of the Rigveda
