Recitation with translationRig Veda 4.18.3

parāyátīṃ mātáram ánv acaṣṭa ná nā́nu gā́ni ánu nū́ gamāni | tváṣṭur gṛhé apibat sómam índraḥ śatá-dhanyaṃ camvóḥ sutásya ||

तो पळून जाणाऱ्या मातेकडे पाहत राहिला, (म्हणत)—‘नाही; मी सर्वसाधारण पाऊलवाटांमागे जाणार नाही; आता मी रूढ मार्गांनी जाणार नाही.’ त्वष्टृच्या गृही इंद्राने सोम पिला—चमू पात्रात पिळून काढलेला, शतधन्य, समृद्धि देणारा रस.
