Sama Veda II.8.1.14: Kind-thoughted is the noble, gladdening, friendly one
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1895) · From Hymns of the Samaveda (1895)
1. Kind-thoughted is the noble, gladdening, friendly one.
2. Approach, O beauteous hero, this auspicious pair that draws the car!
These two are coming near to us.
3. Bend lowly down, as 'twere, your beads: be stands amid the water-flood,
Pointing with his ten horns the way.
