Sama Veda II.9.1.15: Rich be the praiser of one rich and
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1895) · From Hymns of the Samaveda (1895)
1. Rich be the praiser of one rich and liberal, Lord of days! like thee:
High rank be his who lauds the juice!
2. His wealth who hath no store of kine hath ne'er found out recited laud,
Nor song of praises that is sung.
3. Give us not, Indra, as a prey unto the scornful or the proud:
Help, mighty one, with power and might!
