Sukta 87
अध्वर्यवोऽरुणं दुग्धमंशुं जुहोतन वृषभाय क्षितीनाम्। गौराद् वेदीयां अवपानमिन्द्रो विश्वाहेद् याति सुतसोममिच्छन्
ádhvaryavo ’ruṇáṃ dugdhám áṃśuṃ juhótana vṛṣabhā́ya kṣitī́nām | gáurād védīyām avapā́nam índro viśvā́ha íd yā́ti sutásomam icchán |
O Adhvaryus, offer ye the ruddy, milked-out Soma-stalk unto the Bull of the peoples. From the bright vessel, at the altar, Indra evermore draws near, desiring the pressed Soma for his draught.
