Rig Veda 6.4.6

Sanskrit (Devanagari)

आ सूर्यो न भानुमद्भिरर्कैरग्ने ततन्थ रोदसी वि भासा | चित्रो नयत परि तमांस्यक्तः शोचिषा पत्मन्नौशिजो न दीयन

IAST Romanisation

ā sūryo na bhānumadbhirarkairaghne tatantha rodasī vi bhāsā | citro nayat pari tamāṃsyaktaḥ śociṣā patmannauśijo na dīyan

English Translation (Griffith)

Like Sūrya with his fulgent rays, O Agni, thou overspreadest both the worlds with splendour. Decked with bright colour he dispels the darkness, like Auśija, with clear flame swifily flying.
