Rig Veda 1.166.6

Sanskrit (Devanagari)

यूयं न उग्रा मरुतः सुचेतुनारिष्टग्रामाः सुमतिं पिपर्तन | यत्रा वो दिद्युद रदति करिविर्दती रिणाति पश्वः सुधितेव बर्हणा

IAST Romanisation

yūyaṃ na ughrā marutaḥ sucetunāriṣṭaghrāmāḥ sumatiṃ pipartana | yatrā vo didyud radati krivirdatī riṇāti paśvaḥ sudhiteva barhaṇā

English Translation (Griffith)

Terrible Maruts, ye with ne’er-diminished host, with great benevolence fulfil our heart's desire. Where’er your lightning bites armed with its gory teeth it crunches up the cattle like a well-aimed dart.
