Sukta 6
यो नः सोमाभिदासति सनाभिर्यश्च निष्ट्यः । अप तस्य बलं तिर महीव द्यौर्वधत्मना
yó naḥ somaabhidā́sati sanā́bhir yáś ca níṣṭyaḥ | ápa tásya bálaṃ tira mahī́va dyáur vadhátmanā́ ||
Whoso, O Soma, assaileth us, with his fellows, and whoso is the lurking foe—carry away his strength from him, by thy slaying might, as heaven (overbears) the mighty earth.
हे सोम! यो नः सना॑भिः अभिदासति यश्च निष्ट्यः, तस्य बलम् अप तिर, महत्त्वेन वधात्मना, यथा द्यौर्महीम् (अधिक्रमति)।
