Rig Veda 6.3.5: Mandala 6, Sukta 3, Mantra 5
Sukta 6.3
स इदस्तेव प्रति धादसिष्यञ्छिशीत तेजोऽयसो न धाराम् । चित्रध्रजतिररतिर्यो अक्तोर्वेर्न द्रुषद्वा रघुपत्मजंहाः ॥
sá íd astéva práti dhād asiṣyáñ chīśīta téjo ayáso na dhā́rām | citrá-dhrajatir aratír yó aktór vér na dru-sádvā raghupátma-jaṃhāḥ ||
Ia menegakkan diri seolah-olah menghadap sasaran; menajamkan nyalanya bagaikan mata besi. Dengan gerak yang berkilau, tidak mengenal lelah, pada malam hari ia meluncur seperti burung di atas kayu—bersayap pantas, berjejak tangkas.
