Recitation with translationRig Veda 7.103.8

brāhmaṇā́saḥ sómino vā́cam akrata bráhma kṛṇvántaḥ parivatsarī́ṇam | adhvaryávo gharmíṇaḥ sisvidānā́ āvír bhavanti guhyā́ ná ké cit ||

Die Somaträger, die Somin, schaffen die Rede, indem sie Brahman wirken, das dem ganzen Jahresumlauf angehört. Die Adhvaryus, erhitzt von innerer Glut und vom Mühen schweißend, werden sichtbar – obgleich zuvor vor allen verborgen: So treten die verborgenen Kräfte hervor, wenn die Zeit der Eingebung kommt.
