प्र सेनानीः शूरो अग्रे रथानां गव्यन्नेति हर्षते अस्य सेना । भद्रान्कृण्वन्निन्द्रहवान्त्सखिभ्य आ सोमो वस्त्रा रभसानि दत्ते ॥

Hacia delante avanza Soma, el héroe, caudillo al frente de los carros; buscando los rebaños luminosos, su hueste se regocija. Obrando lo propicio y llamando la fuerza de Indra, Soma da a los compañeros vestiduras impetuosas: nuevos velos de luz y poder.
