1. DEAR is this offering in your mouth, O Indra and Brhaspati:
     Famed is the laud, the gladdening draught.
2. This lovely Soma is effused, O Indra and Brhaspati,
     For you, to drink it and rejoice.
3. As Soma-drinkers to our house come, 
     Indra and Brhaspati-and Indra-to drink Soma juice.
4. Vouchsafe us riches hundredfold, O Indra, and Brhaspati,
     With store of horses, thousandfold.
5. O Indra. and Brhaspati, we call you when the meath is shed,
     With songs, to drink the Soma juice.
6. Drink, Indra and Brhaspati, the Soma in the giver's house:
     Delight yourselves abiding there.
