Samhita Patha (Devanagari)

प्रो अयासीदिन्दुरिन्द्रस्य निष्कृतं सखा सख्युर्न प्र मिनाति संगिरम् । मर्य इव युवतिभिः समर्षति सोमः कलशे शतयाम्ना पथा ॥

Transliteration

pró ayāsīd índur índrasya niṣkṛtáṃ sakhā sakhyúr ná prá mināti saṃgíram | márya iva yuvatíbhiḥ sám arṣati sómaḥ kalaśé śatáyāmnā pathā ||

Translation

Maju telah pergi tetes itu, Indu, ke tempat yang disiapkan bagi Indra; sebagai sahabat ia tidak mematahkan ikatan persahabatan. Seperti pemuda kekasih ia menerjang bersama para gadis (air pemelihara); Soma mengalir ke dalam bejana melalui jalan seratus saluran.
