Sanskrit (Devanagari)
एष सुवानः परि सोमः पवित्रे सर्गो न सर्ष्टो अदधावदर्वा | तिग्मे शिशानो महिषो न शर्ङगे गा गव्यन्नभिशूरो न सत्वा
IAST Romanisation
eṣa suvānaḥ pari somaḥ pavitre sargho na sṛṣṭo adadhāvadarvā | tighme śiśāno mahiṣo na śṛṅghe ghā ghavyannabhiśūro na satvā
English Translation (Griffith)
This Soma, pressed into the cleansing filter, hath run as ’twere a host let loose, the Courser; Like a strong bull who whets his horns kpen-pointed, like a brave warrior in the fray for cattle.
