Sama Veda II.1.1.14: Loud-singing at tbe sacred rite where Soma flows
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1895) · From Hymns of the Samaveda (1895)
1. Loud-singing at tbe sacred rite where Soma flows, we priests invoke.
With haste, that he may help, as the bard's cherisher. Indra who findeth wealth for you.
2. Whom, fair of cheek, in rapture of the juice, the firm resistless slayers hinder not:
Giver of glorious wealth to him who sings his praise, honouring him who toils and pours.
