Rig Veda 9.107.2: Mandala 9, Sukta 107, Mantra 2

Sukta 9.107

Devata: Soma Pavamāna (Soma in the process of purification)
Samhita Patha (Devanagari)

नूनं पुनानोऽविभिः परि स्रवादब्धः सुरभिन्तरः । सुते चित्त्वाप्सु मदामो अन्धसा श्रीणन्तो गोभिरुत्तरम् ॥

Transliteration

nū́naṃ punānáḥ aví-bhiḥ pári sravā́d abdháḥ surabhín-taraḥ | suté cít tvā́ apsú madāmo ándhasā śrīṇántaḥ góbhir úttaram ||

Translation

હવે તું પુનાન—શુદ્ધ થતો—અવિ (ભેંસના ઊન)ના છાણણથી ચારે તરફ વહે; અદબ્ધ—અજેય—અને વધુ સુગંધિત. દબાયેલો હોવા છતાં પણ, જળોમાં તારા અંધસ (મદ-રસ)થી અમે આનંદિત થઈએ છીએ; ગો (કિરણ/પ્રકાશ) વડે અમે ઉત્તરને—ઉચ્ચ સ્તરને—શ્રીણીએ, દૃઢ કરીએ છીએ.
