Sanskrit recitationRig Veda 7.3.2
Transliteration

prothád aśvó na yávase’viṣyán yadā máhaḥ saṃváraṇād vyásthāt | ā́d asya vā́to ánu vāti śocír ádha sma te vrájanam kṛ́ṣṇam asti ||

Translation

Он рвётся вперёд, как конь, ищущий себе корм, когда выступил из великого ограждения. Тогда ветер следует за его пламенем; и потому, воистину, твой путь-след становится чёрным: где прошёл Огонь, тьма выжжена в знак прохождения.
