Sama Veda II.2.1.3: Indu, flow on, a mighty juice; glorify us
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1895) · From Hymns of the Samaveda (1895)
1. Indu, flow on, a mighty juice; glorify us among the folk:
Drive all our enernies away!
2. And in thy friendship, Indu, most sublime and glorious, may we
Subdue all those who war with us!
3. Those awful weapons which thou hast, sharpened at point to strike men down--
Guard us therewith from every foe!
