Sanskrit text [Accents, Plain, Transliterated]:
आ सूर्यो॑ अरुहच्छु॒क्रमर्णोऽयु॑क्त॒ यद्ध॒रितो॑ वी॒तपृ॑ष्ठाः । उ॒द्ना न नाव॑मनयन्त॒ धीरा॑ आशृण्व॒तीरापो॑ अ॒र्वाग॑तिष्ठन् ॥

ā sūryo aruhac chukram arṇo 'yukta yad dharito vītapṛṣṭhāḥ | udnā na nāvam anayanta dhīrā āśṛṇvatīr āpo arvāg atiṣṭhan ||
English translation:
“Sūrya has ascended above the glistening water, as soon as he has put to his bright-backed steeds; sage (worshippers) have drawn him, like a ship, across the sea; the waters hearing his commands, have come down.”
Commentary by Sāyaṇa: Ṛgveda-bhāṣya
Sūrya has ascended: sūryo aruhat śukram arṇas = sūrya has mounted the bright water, that is, he has become everywhere visible, but it may be an allusion to the sun's rising apparently out of the sea
