The Rig Veda/Mandala 9/Hymn 30

1. STREAMS of this Potent One have flowed easily to the straining-cloth:
     While he is cleansed he lifts his voice.
2. Indu, by pressers urged to speed, bellowing out while beautified.
     Sends forth a very mighty sound.
3. Pour on us, Soma, with thy stream man conquering might which many crave,
     Accompanied with hero sons.
4. Hither hath Pavamana flowed, Soma flowed hither in a stream,
     To settle in the vats of wood.
5. To waters with the stones they drive thee tawny-hued, most rich in sweets,
     O Indu, to be Indra's drink.
6. For Indra, for the Thunderer press the Soma very rich in sweets,
     Lovely, inspiriting, for strength.
