Bibliotheca Polyglotta

1 TASTE this strong draught enriched with offered viands: with all thy chariot here unyoke thy Coursers. Let not those other sacrificers stay thee, Indra: these juices shed for thee are ready.

túbhyaṃ sutā́s túbhyam u sótuvāsas tuvā́ṃ gíraḥ śvā́triyā ā́ hvayanti |
índredám adyá sávanaṃ juṣāṇó víśvasya vidvā́m̐ ihá pāhi sómam ||

2 Thine is the juice effused, thine are the juices yet to be pressed: our resonant songs invite thee. O Indra, pleased to-day with this libation, come, thou who knowest all and drink the Soma.

yá uśatā́ mánasā sómam asmai sarvahr̥dā́ devákāmaḥ sunóti |
ná gā́ índras tásya párā dadāti praśastám íc cā́rum asmai kr̥ṇoti ||

3 Whoso, devoted to the God, effuses Soma for him with yearning heart and spirit, —Never doth Indra give away his cattle: for him he makes the lovely Soma famous.

ánuspaṣṭo bhavati eṣó asya yó asmai revā́n ná sunóti sómam |
nír aratnaú maghávā táṃ dadhāti brahmadvíṣo hanti ánānudiṣṭaḥ ||

4 He looks with Ioving favour on the mortal who, like a rich man, pours for him the Soma. Maghavan in his bended arm supports him: he slays, unasked, the men who hate devotion.

aśvāyánto gavyánto vājáyanto hávāmahe tvā úpagantavā́ u |
ābhū́ṣantas te sumataú návāyāṃ vayám indra tvā śunáṃ huvema ||

5 We call on thee to come to us, desirous of goods and spoil, of cattle, and of horses. For thy new love and favour are we present: let us invoke thee, Indra, as our welfare.
