RIGVEDA - BOOK 9-HYMN CV. Soma Pavamana
1. SING; ye aloud, O friends, to him who makes him pure for gladdening drink: They shall make sweet the Child with sacrifice and laud. 2 Like as a calf with mother cows, so Indu is urged forth and sent, Glorified by our hymns, the God-delighting juice. 3 Effectual means of power is he, he is a banquet for the Troop, He who hath been effused, most rich in meath, for Gods. 4 Flow to us, Indu, passing, strong, effused, with wealth of kine and steeds: I will spread forth above the milk thy radiant hue. 5 Lord of the tawny, Indu thou who art the God's most special food, As Friend to friend, for splendour be thou good to men. 6 Drive utterly, far away from us each godless, each voracious foe. O Indu, overcome and drive the false afar.
