Sama Veda II.3.1.5: The glittering maids send Sdra forth, the glorious
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1895) · From Hymns of the Samaveda (1895)
1. The glittering maids send Sdra forth, the glorious sisters, closeallied,
Send Indu forth, their mighty Lord.
2. Pervade, O Pavamana, all our treasures with repeated light,
Pressed out, O God thyself, for Gods!
3. Pour on us, Pavamana! rain, as service and fair praise for Gods:
Pour forth unceasingly for food!
