HYMN 8 Indra

1

Here is the Soma juice expressed: O Vasu, drink till thou art full!
Undaunted God, we give it thee!

2

Washed by the men, pressed out with stones, strained through the filter made of wool,
'Tis like a courser bathed in streams.

3

This juice have we made sweet for thee like barley, blending it with milk.
Indra, I call thee to our feast.
