हंसासो ये वाम मधुमन्तो अस्रिधो हिरण्यपर्णा उहुव उषर्बुधः | उदप्रुतो मन्दिनो मन्दिनिस्प्र्शो मध्वो न मक्षः सवनानि गछथः

haṃsāso ye vām madhumanto asridho hiraṇyaparṇā uhuva uṣarbudhaḥ | udapruto mandino mandinispṛśo madhvo na makṣaḥ savanāni ghachathaḥ

English Translation (Griffith)

The swans ye have are friendly, rich in store of meath, gold-pinioned, strong to draw, awake at early morn, Swimming the flood, exultant, fain for draughts that cheer: ye come like flies to our libations of the meath.
