For Indra and the Soma the strong singers, the bards, brought forth the wide‑moving bulls; they pressed forth the flood of cows harnessed to the vat. They offered the draught to Indra, the producer of mighty wealth.
To Indra have libations been presented in the days of old, whereby he has become illustrious, the regulator of time, the granter of desires; accept, Indra, these prescribed (offerings), and drink of this auspicous (Soma), expressed by the stones.
For Indra were the Somas erst- discovered, whereby he grew strong-jointed, vast, and skilful. Indra , take quickly these presented juices: drink of the strong, that which the strong have shaken.
