rājā sindhūnāmavasiṣṭa vāsa ṛtasya nāvamāruhadrajiṣṭhām apsu drapso vāvṛdhe śyenajūto duha īṃ pitā duha īṃ piturjām
O king, the rivers’ lord established the dwelling-place of Ṛta; the ship ascended to the highest seat. In the waters a drop grew, the hawk was yoked; the father gave milk, the father begot offspring.
The sovereign Soma has put on the vestment of the waters, he has ascended the most straight-going ship of sacrifice; the dripping juice brought by the falcon has increased in the water; the father milks him-- milks him the son of the father.
King, he hath clothed him in the robe of rivers, mounted the straightest-going ship of Order. Sped by the Hawk the drop hath waxed in waters: the father drains it, drains the Father's offspring.
