1. The rapture-shedding Somas have flowed forth in our assembly, pressed.
To glorify our liberal lords.

2. Now like a swan hemaketh all the company sing each his hymm
He like steed is bathed in milk.

3. And Trita's maidens onward urge the tawny-coloured with the stones,
Indu for Indra, for his drink.
