Sanskrit recitationRig Veda 3.6.8

uráu vā yé antárikṣe mádanti divó vā yé rócane sánti devā́ḥ | ūmā́ vā yé suhavā́so yájatrā āyemiré rathyó agne áśvāḥ ||

Ob sie im weiten Zwischenraum jubeln, ob die Götter im leuchtenden Himmel wohnen — jene verehrungswürdigen Mächte, leicht zu rufen: für sie, o Agni, sind die Wagenrosse zum Geschirr gekommen, bereit zur Fahrt der Darbringung.
