Sanskrit Original
अध॒ क्रत्वा॑ मघव॒न्तुभ्यं॑ दे॒वा अनु॒ विश्वे॑ अददुः सोम॒पेय॑म् । यत्सूर्य॑स्य ह॒रितः॒ पत॑न्तीः पु॒रः स॒तीरुप॑रा॒ एत॑शे॒ कः
adha kratvā maghavantubhyaṃ devā anu viśve adaduḥ somapeyam yatsūryasya haritaḥ patantīḥ puraḥ satīruparā etaśe kaḥ
Having invoked the mighty performers, the gods offered Soma-drink for all the people; those falling before the sun, those forward and those behind—who are these?
Then, for this exploit, all the gods gave you Maghavan, in succession, the Soma beverage; whence you have retarded, for the sake of Etaśa, the advancing horses of the sun.
Thus all the Gods, O Maghavan, delivered to thee of their free will the draught of Soma; When thou for Etasa didst cause to tarry the flying mares of Surya racing forward.
