The Hymns of the Rigveda/Book 9/Hymn 25

1. GREEN-HUED! as one who giveth strength flow on for Gods to drink, a draught
     For Vayu and the Marut host.
2. O Pavamana, sent by song, roaring about thy dwelling-place,
     Pass into Vayu as Law bids.
3. The Steer shines with the Deities, dear Sage in his appointed home,
     Foe-Slayer, most beloved by Gods.
4. Taking each beauteous form, he goes, desirable, while purified,
     Thither where the Immortals sit.
5. To Indra Soma flows, the Red, engendering song, exceeding wise,
     The visitor of living men.
6. Flow, best exhilarator, Sage, flow to the filter in a stream
     To seat thee in the place of song.
