Rig Veda

Mandal - 9 (Part - 9)

HYMN 49 Soma Pavamana

1

Poust down the rain upon us, pour a wave of waters from the sky,
And plenteous store of wholesome fbod.

2

Flow onward with that stream of thine, whereby the cows have come to us,
The kine of strangers to our home.

3

Chief Friend of Gods in sacred rites, pour on us fatness with thy stream,
Ppur down on us a flood of rain.

4

To give us vigour, with thy stream run through the fleecy straining-cloth
For verily the Gods will bear.

5

Onward hath Pavamana flowed and beaten off the Raksasas,
Flashing out splendour as of old.
