eṣá syá sómaḥ pavate sahasrajíd hinvānáḥ vā́cam iṣirá̄m uṣárbudhám | índuḥ samudrám úd iyarti vāyúbhiḥ ā́ índrasya hā́rdi kalaśéṣu sīdati ||

Soma ini sungguh disucikan; pemenang seribu, menggerakkan ke hadapan wacana ilham—tajam, membangunkan fajar. Indu yang gemilang mengangkat samudera bersama angin, lalu bersemayam dalam cawan-cawan di hati Indra.
