Sanskrit recitationRig Veda 10.76.7
Transliteration

sunvánti sómaṃ rathirā́so ádrayo nír asya rásaṃ gavíṣo duhanti té | duhánty ū́dhar upa-sécanāya káṃ naro havyā́ ná marjayanta ā́sabhiḥ ||

Translation

Выжимают Сому камни (адри), стремительные в движении; извлекая его сок-эссенцию, в поиске светлых стад, они доят его. Доят вымя для излияния; мужи-герои полируют приношения, словно устами, — делая жертву пригодной для богов внутри.
