Sukta 1.87
उपह्वरेषु यदचिध्वं ययिं वय इव मरुतः केन चित्पथा । श्चोतन्ति कोशा उप वो रथेष्वा घृतमुक्षता मधुवर्णमर्चते ॥
upahvaréṣu yád acídhvam yayíṃ váya iva marutaḥ kéna cit pathā́ | ścótanti kóśā úpa vo rathéṣv ā́ ghṛtám ukṣatā mádhuvarṇam árcate ||
When in the hollows you kindle your moving force, O Maruts, like birds along some path, then the vessels upon your chariots drip; you pour the ghee, honey-hued, and the chant goes up in delight.
