Rig Veda

Mandal - 9 (Part - 9)

HYMN 43 Soma Pavamana

1

WE will enrobe with sacred song the Lovely One who, as a Steed,
Is decked with milk for rapturous joy.

2

All songs of ours desiring grace adorn him in the ancient way,
Indu for Indra, for his drink.

3

Soma flows on when purified, beloved and adorned with songs,
Songs of the sage Medhyatithi.

4

O Soma Pavamana, find exceeding glorious wealth for us,
Wealth, Indu, fraught with boundless might.

5

Like courser racing to the prize Indu, the lover of the Gods,
Roars, as he passes, in the sieve.

6

Flow on thy way to win us strength, to speed the sage who praises thee:
Soma, bestow heroic power.
