Rig Veda 4.6.3

यता सुजूर्णी रातिनी घर्ताची परदक्षिणिद देवतातिम उराणः | उद उ सवरुर नवजा नाक्रः पश्वो अनक्ति सुधितः सुमेकः

IAST Romanisation

yatā sujūrṇī rātinī ghṛtācī pradakṣiṇid devatātim urāṇaḥ | ud u svarur navajā nākraḥ paśvo anakti sudhitaḥ sumekaḥ

English Translation (Griffith)

The glowing ladle, filled with oil, is lifted; choosing Gods’ service to the right he circles. Eager he rises like the new-wrought pillar which, firmly set and fixed, anoints the victims.
