Samhita Patha (Devanagari)

भुरन्तु नो यशसः सोत्वन्धसो ग्रावाणो वाचा दिविता दिवित्मता । नरो यत्र दुहते काम्यं मध्वाघोषयन्तो अभितो मिथस्तुरः ॥

Transliteration

bhurántu no yaśásaḥ sótv ándhaso grā́vāṇo vācā́ divítā divítmatā | naro yátra duhate kāmyáṃ mádhv āghóṣayanto abhíto mithaḥ-túraḥ ||

Translation

Que las piedras de prensar derramen para nosotros una gloria luminosa; que expriman el jugo (Soma) con la palabra — por el poder celeste y su fuerza que asciende al cielo. Allí donde los varones fuertes ordeñan la miel deseada, la dulzura melosa, haciéndola resonar por todas partes, esforzándose juntos en un alzamiento recíproco.
