HYMN 17 Soma Pavamana

1

In might, O Indu, with thy streams flow for the banquet of the Gods:
Rich in meath, Soma, in our beaker take thy seat!

2

Thy drops that swim in water have exalted Indra to delight
The Gods have drunk thee up for immortality.

3

Stream opulence to us, ye drops of Soma, pressed and purified
Pouring down rain from heaven in floods, and finding light!
