Rig Veda

Book 9, Hymn LIX. Soma Pavamana

1. FLOW onward, Soma, winning kine, and steeds, and all that gives delight:
Bring hither wealth with progeny.

2 Flow onward from the waters, flow, inviolable, from the plants:
Flow onward from the pressing-boards.

3 Soma, as Pavamana, pass over all trouble and distress:
Sit on the sacred grass, a Sage.

4 Thou, Pavamana, foundest light; thou at thy birth becamest great:
O Indu, thou art over all.
