Rig Veda 9.81.2: Mandala 9, Sukta 81, Mantra 2
Sukta 9.81
अच्छा हि सोमः कलशाँ असिष्यददत्यो न वोळ्हा रघुवर्तनिर्वृषा । अथा देवानामुभयस्य जन्मनो विद्वाँ अश्नोत्यमुत इतश्च यत् ॥
ácchā hí sómaḥ kalaśā́n ásiṣyad átyo na vóḷhā raghu-vártanir vṛ́ṣā | áthā devā́nām ubháyasya jánmano vidvā́ṃ aśnoty amúta itáś ca yát ||
Denn Soma eilt wahrlich zu den Krügen, wie ein schneller Hengst, der die Last trägt, — ein Stier mit raschen Bahnen. Dann erlangt der Wissende, was zur zweifachen Geburt der Götter gehört: das, was von dort ist, und das, was von hier ist.
