प्र ये दिवः पृथिव्या न बर्हणा त्मना रिरिच्रे अभ्रान्न सूर्यः । पाजस्वन्तो न वीराः पनस्यवो रिशादसो न मर्या अभिद्यवः ॥

Recitation with translationRig Veda 10.77.3

prá ye diváḥ pṛthivyā́ ná barháṇā tmánā riricré abhrā́n ná sū́ryaḥ | pā́jasvanto ná vīrā́ḥ panasyávo riśā́daso ná maryā́ abhí-dyavaḥ ||

ఆకాశం మరియు భూమి నుండి ఉప్పొంగే ప్రవాహంలా బయలుదేరేవారు, తమ స్వభావబలంతోనే విస్తరిస్తారు—మేఘాల నుంచి వెలువడే సూర్యునిలా. వీరులవలె కాంతిమంతులు, సిద్ధి-బహుమతిని కోరువారు; ప్రతిఘటనను భక్షించువారు, యువ యోధులవలె—ప్రకాశం వైపు దూసుకుపోతూ ముందుకు సాగుతారు.
