HYMN 13 Soma Pavamana

1

For thee this Soma is effused. O Indra: drink of this j uice; for thee the stream is flowing-
Soma, which thou thyself hast made and chosen, even Indu for thy special drink to cheer thee!

2

Like a capacious car hath it been harnessed, the mighty, to acquire abundant treasures.
Then in the sacrifice they shouted lauding all triumphs won by Nahus in the battle.

3

Flow onward like the potent band of Maruts, like that celestial host which none revileth!
Quickly be gracious unto us like waters, like sacrifice victorious, thousand-fashioned!
