Rig Veda 3.53.10: Mandala 3, Sukta 53, Mantra 10
Sukta 3.53
हंसा इव कृणुथ श्लोकमद्रिभिर्मदन्तो गीर्भिरध्वरे सुते सचा । देवेभिर्विप्रा ऋषयो नृचक्षसो वि पिबध्वं कुशिकाः सोम्यं मधु ॥
haṃsā́ iva kṛṇutha ślókám ádri-bhir mádanto gī́rbhir adhvaré suté sacā́ | devébhir viprā ṛ́ṣayo nṛcákṣaso ví pibadhvaṃ kuśikāḥ sómyaṃ mádhu ||
Like swans, fashion the clear chant; intoxicated with the pressing-stones, with the hymns, together in the sacrifice where Soma is pressed. O inspired seers, human-seeing, with the gods—drink fully, Kuśikas, the honeyed Soma-delight.
