Sama Veda — Pūrvārcika, Mantra 7
Aindra victory and wealth secured through Soma’s purifying flow and Indra-invocation
अधि यदस्मिन्वाजिनीव शुभः स्पर्धन्ते धियः सूरे न विशः अपो वृणानः पवते कवीयन्व्रजं न पशुवर्धनाय मन्म

അവന്റെ മേൽ—വിജയപ്രദമായ, ദീപ്തമായ വാജിന (കുതിര) പോലെയായി—ഭക്തിസമ്പന്നമായ ധിയഃ (പവിത്രചിന്തകൾ) മത്സരിക്കുമ്പോൾ; സൂര്യനിലേക്കു ജനങ്ങൾ കൂടുന്നതുപോലെ അവൻ അപഃ (ജലങ്ങൾ) തിരഞ്ഞെടുക്കുമ്പോൾ—അപ്പോൾ അതി-കവി, അതി-ജ്ഞാനിയായ സോമൻ ശുദ്ധിയായി ഒഴുകുന്നു; ഗോവർധനത്തിനായി വ്രജ (ഗോശാല) കൊണ്ടുവരുന്നതുപോലെ—ഇതാണ് മന്മ (സ്തുതി).
