Sama Veda II.3.2.2: The streams of Pavamana, thine, finder of all
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1895) · From Hymns of the Samaveda (1895)
1. The streams of Pavamana, thine, finder of all I have been ettused,
Even as Surya's rays of light.
2. Making the light that shines from heaven thou flowest on to every form,
Soma, thou swellest like a sea.
3. Shown forth thou sendest out thy voice, O Pavamana, with a roar.
Like Surya, God, as Law commands.
