Rig Veda 4.18.2
Sanskrit (Devanagari)
नाहम अतो निर अया दुर्गहैतत तिरश्चता पार्श्वान निर गमाणि | बहूनि मे अक्र्ता कर्त्वानि युध्यै तवेन सं तवेन पर्छै
IAST Romanisation
nāham ato nir ayā durghahaitat tiraścatā pārśvān nir ghamāṇi | bahūni me akṛtā kartvāni yudhyai tvena saṃ tvena pṛchai
English Translation (Griffith)
Not this way go I forth: hard is the passage. Forth from the side obliquely will I issue. Much that is yet undone must I accomplish; one must I combat and the other question.
