9,14 Soma Pavamana

9.XIV Soma Pavamana

pári prā́siṣyadat kavíḥ síndhor ūrmā́v ádhi śritáḥ |
kārám bíbhrat puruspŕ̥ham ||

1 REPOSING on the river's wave the Sage hath widely flowed around, Bearing the hymn which many love.

girā́ yádī sábandhavaḥ páñca vrā́tā apasyávaḥ |
pariṣkr̥ṇvánti dharṇasím ||

2 When the Five kindred Companies, active in duty, with the song Establish him, the Powerful,

ā́d asya śuṣmíṇo ráse víśve devā́ amatsata |
yádī góbhir vasāyáte ||

3 Then in his juice whose strength is great, have all the Gods rejoiced themselves, When he hath clothed him in the milk.

niriṇānó ví dhāvati jáhac cháryāṇi tā́nuvā |
átrā sáṃ jighnate yujā́ ||

4 Freeing himself he flows away, leaving his body's severed limbs, And meets his own Companion here.

naptī́bhir yó vivásvataḥ śubhró ná māmr̥jé yúvā |
gā́ḥ kr̥ṇvānó ná nirṇíjam ||

5 He by the daughters of the priest, like a fair youth, hath been adorned, Making the milk, as ’twere, his robe.

áti śritī́ tiraścátā gavyā́ jigāti áṇviyā |
vagnúm iyarti yáṃ vidé ||

6 O'er the fine fingers, through desire of milk, in winding course he goes, And utters voice which he hath found.

abhí kṣípaḥ sám agmata marjáyantīr iṣás pátim |
pr̥ṣṭhā́ gr̥bhṇata vājínaḥ ||

7 The nimble fingers have approached, adorning him the Lord of Strength: They grasp the vigorous Courser's back.

pári divyā́ni mármr̥śad víśvāni soma pā́rthivā |
vásūni yāhi asmayúḥ ||

8 Comprising all the treasures that are in the heavens and on the earth, Come, Soma, as our faithful Friend.
