Rig Veda

Mandal - 9 (Part - 9)

HYMN 52 Soma Pavamana

1

WEALTH-WINNER, dwelling in the sky, bringing us vigour with the juice,
Flow to the filter when effused.

2

So, in thine ancient ways, may he, beloved, with a thousand streams
Run o'er the fleecy straining-cloth.

3

Him who is like a caldron shake: O Indu, shake thy gift to us
Shake it, armed Warrior! with thine arms.

4

Indu, invoked with many a prayer, bring down the vigour of these men,
Of him who threatens us with war.

5

Indu, Wealth-giver, with thine help pour out for us a hundred, yea,
A thousand of thy pure bright streams.
