Sukta 9.89

Devata: Soma Pavamāna

प्रो स्य वह्निः पथ्याभिरस्यान्दिवो न वृष्टिः पवमानो अक्षाः । सहस्रधारो असदन्न्यस्मे मातुरुपस्थे वन आ च सोमः ॥

pró syá vaḥníḥ pathyā́bhir asyān divó na vṛṣṭíḥ pávamāno akṣāḥ | sahásra-dhāro ásadann y àsmé mā́tur upásthe vána ā́ ca sómaḥ ||

Ngài tiến về phía trước—kẻ mang sức mạnh của lửa—dọc những nẻo đường chính đáng; như mưa từ trời cao, Đấng thanh lọc tuôn trào. Soma (Soma) nghìn dòng an trú trong chúng ta—trong lòng mẹ, giữa rừng cây sinh trưởng—và đến với cánh đồng của hiện hữu chúng ta.
