RIGVEDA - BOOK 10 -HYMN LVII Viśvedevas.
1. LET us not, Indra, leave the path, the Soma-presser's sacrifice:
Let no malignity dwell with us.
2 May we obtain, completely wrought, the thread spun out to reach the Gods,
That perfecteth the sacrifice.
3 We call the spirit hither with the Soma of our parted sires,
Yea, with the Fathers' holy hymns.
4 Thy spirit come to thee again for wisdom, energy, and lire,
That thou mayst long behold the sun!
5 O Fathers, may the Heavenly Folk give us our spirit once again,
That we may be with those who live.
6 O Soma with the spirit still within us, blest with progeny,
May we be busied in the law.
Bibliography: Rigveda, translated by Ralph Thomas Hotchkin Griffith, (1896)
