    Rig Veda

    Book 9, Hymn XI. Soma Pavamana

    1. SING forth to Indu, O ye men, to him who is purified,
    Fain to pay worship to the Gods.

    2 Together with thy pleasant juice the Atharvans have commingled milk,
    Divine, devoted to the God.

    3 Bring, by thy flowing, weal to kine, weal to the people, weal to steeds.
    Weal, O thou King, to growing plants

    4 Sing a praise-song to Soma brown of hue, of independent might.
    The Red, who reaches up to heaven.

    5 Purify Soma when effused with stones which bands move rapidly,
    And pour the sweet milk in the meath.

    6 With humble homage draw ye nigh; blend the libation with the curds:
    To Indra offer Indu up.

    7 Soma, foe-que chief o’er men, doing the will of pour forth
    Prosperity upon our kine.

    8 Heart-knower, Sovran of the heart, thou art effused,
    O Soma, that Indra may drink thee and rejoice.

    9 O Soma Pavamana, give us riches and heroic strength,—
    Indu! with. Indra for ally.
