Rig Veda 5.32.1: Mandala 5, Sukta 32, Mantra 1
Sukta 5.32
अदर्दरुत्समसृजो वि खानि त्वमर्णवान्बद्बधानाँ अरम्णाः । महान्तमिन्द्र पर्वतं वि यद्वः सृजो वि धारा अव दानवं हन् ॥
ádarda utsám asṛjo ví khā́ni tvám arṇavā́n badbadhānā́m aramṇāḥ | mahā́ntam indra párvataṃ ví yád vaḥ sṛjó ví dhārā́ áva dānaváṃ han ||
You broke open the spring and released the channels; you set free the flood-waters that were bound. When you split the great mountain, O Indra, you let the streams flow out—having struck down the Dānava who withheld them.
