Sama Veda II.3.1.15: He who as sovran Lord of men moves
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1895) · From Hymns of the Samaveda (1895)
1. He who as sovran Lord of men moves with his chariots unrestrained,
The Vritra-slayer, conqueror of all fighting hosts, preeminents, is praised in song.
2. Honour that Indra, Puruhanman! for his aid, him in whose hand of old the fair
Sustaining bolt of thunder, mighty like the God, like Surya, was deposited!
