When you sit by the side-benches where you have prepared, as if like the Maruts by some path, the vessels overflow; you pour clarified butter into chariots and offer honey-colored libations.

📖 Book ReferenceWisdomLibRig Veda English TranslationSource ↗

When, Maruts, flying like birds along a certain path (of the sky), you collect the moving passing (clouds) in the nearest portions (of the firmament), then, coming into collision with your cars, they pour forth (the waters); therefore, do you shower upon your worshipper the honey-coloured rain.

📖 Book ReferenceRalph T.H. GriffithThe Rig Veda, 1896Source ↗

When, Maruts, on the steeps ye pile the moving cloud, ye are like birds on whatsoever path it be. Clouds everywhere shed forth the rain upon your cars. Drop fatness, honey-hued, for him who sings your praise.
