HYMN 10 Soma Pavamana

1

Three are the voices that the car-steed utters: he speaks the lore of prayer, the thought of Order.
To the cows' master come the cows inquiring: the hymns with eager longing come to Soma.

2

To Soma come the cows, the milch-kine longing, to Soma sages with their hymns inquiring.
Soma, effused, is purified and lauded: our hymns and Trishtup songs unite in Soma.

3

Thus, Soma, as we pour thee into vessels, while thou art purified, flow for our welfare!
Pass into Indra. with great joy and rapture: make the voice swell, and generate abundance!
