Rig Veda 1.32.6

Sanskrit (Devanagari)

अयोद्धेव दुर्मद आ हि जुह्वे महावीरं तुविबाधं रजीषम | नातारीदस्य सम्र्तिं वधानां सं रुजानाः पिपिषैन्द्रशत्रुः

IAST Romanisation

ayoddheva durmada ā hi juhve mahāvīraṃ tuvibādhaṃ ṛjīṣam | nātārīdasya samṛtiṃ vadhānāṃ saṃ rujānāḥ pipiṣaindraśatruḥ

English Translation (Griffith)

He, like a mad weak warrior, challenged Indra, the great impetuous many-slaying Hero. He, brooking not the clashing of the weapons, crushed—Indra's foe—the shattered forts in falling.
