- c. 1700 BCE – 1200 BCE, Ṛgveda 10.75.1:
- प्र सु व॑ आपो महि॒मान॑मुत्त॒मं का॒रुर्वो॑चाति॒ सद॑ने वि॒वस्व॑तः।
प्र स॒प्तस॑प्त त्रे॒धा हि च॑क्र॒मुः प्र सृत्व॑रीणा॒मति॒ सिन्धु॒रोज॑सा॥- prá sú va āpo mahimā́namuttamáṃ kārúrvocāti sádane vivásvataḥ.
prá saptásapta tredhā́ hí cakramúḥ prá sṛ́tvarīṇāmáti síndhurójasā. - Waters, the worshipper addresses to you excellent praise in the dwelling of the instrumental tutor of the rite;they flowed by sevens through the three worlds; but the Sindhu surpasses all the other streams in strength.
- prá sú va āpo mahimā́namuttamáṃ kārúrvocāti sádane vivásvataḥ.
- प्र सु व॑ आपो महि॒मान॑मुत्त॒मं का॒रुर्वो॑चाति॒ सद॑ने वि॒वस्व॑तः।
