Sanskrit recitationRig Veda 4.58.7
Transliteration

síndhor iva prā́dhvane śū́ghanāso vā́ta-pramiyaḥ patayanti yahvā́ḥ | ghṛtásya dhā́rā aruṣó ná vājī kā́ṣṭhā bhindánn ū́rmibhiḥ pinvámānaḥ ||

Translation

Como o Sindhu em seu curso adiante, de focinho veloz, impelidos pelo vento, eles voam — esses movimentos elevados. As correntes do ghṛta, como um corcel ruivo de plenitude, rompem as barreiras, avolumando-se com suas ondas.
