Sama Veda II.1.1.7: Indra and Agni, moved by songs, come to
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1895) · From Hymns of the Samaveda (1895)
1. Indra and Agni, moved by songs, come to the juice, the precious dew:
Drink ye thereof, impelled by prayer!
2. Indra and Agni, with the man who lauds comes visible sacrifice:
So drink ye both this flowing juice!
3. With force of sacrifice I seek Indra, Agni who love the wise:
With Soma let them sate them here!
