9,8 Soma Pavamana

9.VIII Soma Pavamana

eté sómā abhí priyám índrasya kā́mam akṣaran |
várdhanto asya vīríyam ||

1 OBEYING Indra's dear desire these Soma juices have flowed forth, Increasing his heroic might.

punānā́saś camūṣádo gáchanto vāyúm aśvínā |
té no dhāntu suvī́riyam ||

2 Laid in the bowl, pure-flowing on to Vāyu and the Aśvins, may These give us great heroic strength.

índrasya soma rā́dhase punānó hā́rdi codaya |
r̥tásya yónim āsádam ||

3 Soma, as thou art purified, incite to bounty Indra's heart, To sit in place of sacrifice.

mr̥jánti tvā dáśa kṣípo hinvánti saptá dhītáyaḥ |
ánu víprā amādiṣuḥ ||

4 The ten swift fingers deck thee forth, seven ministers impel thee on: The sages have rejoiced in thee.

devébhyas tvā mádāya káṃ sr̥jānám áti meṣíyaḥ |
sáṃ góbhir vāsayāmasi ||

5 When through the filter thou art poured, we clothe thee with a robe of milk To be a gladdening draught for Gods.

punānáḥ kaláśeṣu ā́ vástrāṇi aruṣó háriḥ |
pári gávyāni avyata ||

6 When purified within the jars, Soma, brightred and golden-hued, Hath clothed him with a robe of milk.

maghóna ā́ pavasva no jahí víśvā ápa dvíṣaḥ |
índo sákhāyam ā́ viśa ||

7 Flow on to us and make us rich. Drive all our enemies away. O Indu, flow into thy Friend.

vr̥ṣṭíṃ diváḥ pári srava dyumnám pr̥thiviyā́ ádhi |
sáho naḥ soma pr̥tsú dhāḥ ||

8 Send down the rain from heaven, a stream of opulence from earth. Give us, O Soma, victory in war.

nr̥cákṣasaṃ tuvā vayám índrapītaṃ suvarvídam |
bhakṣīmáhi prajā́m íṣam ||

9 May we obtain thee, Indra's drink, who viewest men and findest light, Gain thee, and progeny and food.
