Sama Veda II.4.1.11: For Indra girt by Maruts, flow, thou Indu
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1895) · From Hymns of the Samaveda (1895)
1. For Indra girt by Maruts, flow, thou Indu, very rich in meath,
To seat thee in the place of song!
2. Sage: who know the lore of speech deck thee, the strong sustainer, well:
Men make thee bright and beautiful.
3. Let Mitra, Varuna, Aryaman drink Pavamana's juice, yea, thine.
Sage! let the Maruts drink thereof.
