Rig Veda 2.39.7
Sanskrit (Devanagari)
हस्तेव शक्तिमभि सन्ददी नः कषामेव नः समजतं रजांसि | इमा गिरो अश्विना युष्मयन्तीः कष्णोत्रेणेव सवधितिं सं शिशीतम
IAST Romanisation
hasteva śaktimabhi sandadī naḥ kṣāmeva naḥ samajataṃ rajāṃsi | imā ghiro aśvinā yuṣmayantīḥ kṣṇotreṇeva svadhitiṃ saṃ śiśītam
English Translation (Griffith)
Like two hands give ye us increasing vigour; like heaven and earth constrain the airy regions. Aśvins, these hymns that struggle to approach you, sharpen ye like an axe upon a whetstone.
