Recitation with translationRig Veda 2.38.7

tváyā hitám ápyam ap-sú bhāgáṃ dhánvānvā mṛgayáso ví tasthuḥ | vánāni víbhyo nákir asya tā́ni vratā́ devásya savitúr mínanti ||

Pues por ti queda puesta en las aguas la porción escondida; por eso los buscadores se dispersan por la tierra seca. Los bosques: nadie puede violarlos; las leyes sagradas (vratá) del dios Savitṛ no admiten mengua.
