Samhita Patha (Devanagari)
तं त्वा हस्तिनो मधुमन्तमद्रिभिर्दुहन्त्यप्सु वृषभं दश क्षिपः । इन्द्रं सोम मादयन्दैव्यं जनं सिन्धोरिवोर्मिः पवमानो अर्षसि ॥
Transliteration
táṃ tvā hastíno mádhumantam ádribhir duhánty apsú vṛṣabháṃ dáśa kṣípaḥ | índraṃ soma mādayan daívyam jánaṃ síndhor ivormíḥ pavamāno arṣasi ||
Translation
Engkau, penuh kemanisan, diperah oleh tangan-tangan mahir dengan batu-batu—di dalam air—sang banteng dari sepuluh jari. Wahai Soma, menggembirakan Indra, menyukakan kaum ilahi di dalam diri kami, engkau melaju setelah disucikan, laksana gelombang sungai.
