THE SAMA VEDA<br />

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br />

III Indra<br />

1. Indra, with all thy saving helps assist us, Lord of power and might!<br />

For after thee we follow even as glorious bliss, thee, hero, finder-out of wealth!<br />

2. Increaser of our steeds and multiplying kine, a golden well, G God, art thou,<br />

For no one may impair the gift laid up in thee. Bring me whatever thing I ask!<br />

IV Indra<br />

1. For thou--come to the worshipper!--wilt find great wealth to make us rich.<br />

Fill thyself full, O Maghavan, for gain of kine, full, Indra, forthe gain of steeds!<br />

2. Thou as thy gift bestowest many hundred herds, yea, many thou-sands dost thou give.<br />

With singers' hymns have we brought the fortrender near, singing to Indra for his grace.<br />

V Agni<br />

1. To him who dealeth out all wealth, the sweet-toned Hotar-priest of men,<br />

To him, like the first vessels filled with savoury juice, to Agni let the lauds go forth!<br />

2. Votaries, bounteous givers, deck him with their songs, even as the steed who draws the car.<br />

To both, strong Lord of men! to kith and kin convey the bounties of our wealthy lords!<br />

VI Varuna<br />

1. Hear this my call, O Varuna, and show thy gracious love today:<br />

Desiring help I long for thee!<br />

VII Indra<br />

1. O Hero, with what aid dost thou delight us, with what succour bring,<br />

Riches to those who worship thee?<br />

VIII Indra<br />

1. Indra, for service of the Gods, Indra while sacrifice proceeds,<br />

Indra, as worshippers, in battle-shock we call, Indra that we may win the spoil.<br />

2. With might hath Indra spread out heaven and earth, with power hath indra lighten up the Sun. In<br />

Indra are all creatures closely held; in him meet the distilling Soma-drops.<br />

IX Visvakarman<br />

1. Bring, Visvakarman strengthened by oblation, thyself, thy body-'tis thine own-for worship<br />

Let other men around us live in folly here let us have', a rich and liberal patron!<br />

X Soma Pavamana<br />

1. With this his golden splendour purifying him, he with his own allies subdues all enemies. as Sura<br />

with his own allies.<br />
