Devata: Soma Pavamāna

पवस्व सोम मधुमाँ ऋतावापो वसानो अधि सानो अव्ये । अव द्रोणानि घृतवान्ति सीद मदिन्तमो मत्सर इन्द्रपानः ॥

تطهَّرْ يا سوما، يا كثيرَ العسلِ، يا قائمًا على ṛta؛ لابسًا المياهَ على الحافةِ الصوفية (sāna avya). انزلْ إلى الأوعيةِ المملوءةِ بالسمنِ المصفّى؛ أنتَ أشدُّها إسكارًا وأعظمُها نشوةً—شرابُ إندرا—لكي يثبتَ الفرحُ ساكنًا في القرابينِ المقدَّمة.
