Sukta 4.1
ते मर्मृजत ददृवांसो अद्रिं तदेषामन्ये अभितो वि वोचन् । पश्वयन्त्रासो अभि कारमर्चन्विदन्त ज्योतिश्चकृपन्त धीभिः ॥
té marmṛjata dadṛvā́ṃso ádrim tádeṣām anyé abhíto ví vocan | paśvá-yantrāso abhí kārám arcan vídanta jyótiś cakṛ́panta dhībhíḥ ||
They worked upon the stone, those who had the vision; and the others around them gave voice to it. Like herdsmen who guide the cattle, they sang toward the act of making; they found the Light and shaped it by their illumined thoughts.
