Sama Veda II.6.3.10: May we attain that excellent glory of Savitar
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1895) · From Hymns of the Samaveda (1895)
1. May we attain that excellent glory of Savitar the God: So may he stimulate our prayers!
2. O Brahmanaspati, make thou Kakshivan Ausija a loud Chanter of flowing Soma juice!
3. Agni, thou pourest life: send down upon us food and vigorous strength;
Drive thou misfortune far away!
