Sama Veda II.2.2.7: So mayst thou verily be seen coming with
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1895) · From Hymns of the Samaveda (1895)
1. So mayst thou verily be seen coming with fearless Indra: both
Of equal splendour, bringing bliss!
2. Thereafter they, as is their wont, resumed the state of new-born babes,
Taking their sacrificial name.
3. Thou, Indra, with the rapid Gods who shatter even what is firm,
Even in the cave didst find the cows.
