Rig Veda 6.24.7: Mandala 6, Sukta 24, Mantra 7
Sukta 6.24
न यं जरन्ति शरदो न मासा न द्याव इन्द्रमवकर्शयन्ति । वृद्धस्य चिद्वर्धतामस्य तनूः स्तोमेभिरुक्थैश्च शस्यमाना ॥
ná yaṃ járanti śarádo ná māsā́ ná dyā́va índram avakarśáyanti | vṛ́ddhasya cid vardhatām asya tanū́ḥ stómebhir uktháiś ca śasyámānā ||
The seasons do not wear him out, nor the months; the days do not draw Indra down. Even of the grown and ancient one, may his body of power increase—praised and made manifest by our hymns and solemn utterances.
