Rig Veda 1.71.7
Sanskrit (Devanagari)
अग्निं विश्वा अभि पर्क्षः सचन्ते समुद्रं न सरवतः सप्त यह्वीः | न जामिभिर्वि चिकिते वयो नो विदा देवेषु परमतिं चिकित्वान
IAST Romanisation
aghniṃ viśvā abhi pṛkṣaḥ sacante samudraṃ na sravataḥ sapta yahvīḥ | na jāmibhirvi cikite vayo no vidā deveṣu pramatiṃ cikitvān
English Translation (Griffith)
All sacrificial viands wait on Agni as the Seven mighty Rivers seek the ocean. Not by our brethren was our food discovered: find with the Gods care for us, thou who knowest.
