Sanskrit recitationRig Veda 9.76.1
Transliteration

dhartā diváḥ pavate kṛ́tvyo ráso dákṣo devā́nām anumā́dyo nṛ́bhiḥ | háriḥ sṛjānáḥ átyo na sátvabhir vṛ́thā pā́jāṃsi kṛṇute nadī́ṣv ā́ ||

Translation

Der Träger des Himmels strömt in Läuterung — die wirksame Essenz, die Kunst der Götter, zu genießen von den Kräften der Menschen. Der Falbe, freigesetzt, wie ein Ross mit seinen Stärken, gestaltet frei seine gewaltigen Energien, wenn er in die Ströme eingeht.
