RV 6.57

Ralph T. H. Griffith, 1896 · 6 verses · Read at the source

6.57.1INDRA and Pusan will we call for friend ship and prosperity And for the winning of the spoil.

6.57.2One by the Soma sits to drink juice which the mortar hath expressed: The other longs for curd and meal.

6.57.3Goats are the team that draws the one: the other hath Bay Steeds at hand; With both of these he slays the fiends.

6.57.4When Indra, wondrous strong, brought down the streams, the mighty waterfloods, Pusan was standing by his side.

6.57.5To this, to Pusan's favouring love, and Indra's, may we closely cling, As to a tree's extended bough.

6.57.6As one who drives a car draws in his reins, may we draw Pusan near, And Indra, for our great success.
