Rig Veda 9.83.3: Mandala 9, Sukta 83, Mantra 3
Sukta 9.83
अरूरुचदुषसः पृश्निरग्रिय उक्षा बिभर्ति भुवनानि वाजयुः । मायाविनो ममिरे अस्य मायया नृचक्षसः पितरो गर्भमा दधुः ॥
arū́rucad uṣásaḥ pṛ́śnir agriyá ukṣā́ bibharti bhúvanāni vāja-yúḥ | māyāvíno mamire asya māyáyā nṛ-cákṣasaḥ pitáro gárbham ā́ dadhúḥ ||
The dappled one shines forth at the Dawn, first in the front; the Bull that desires vāja upholds the worlds. By his power of formation the masters of vision measure him; the Fathers with human-seeing sight place the embryo within—setting the delight to be born in us.
