RV 3.53.10

हंसा इव कृणुथ श्लोकम् अद्रिभिर् मदन्तो गीर्भिर् अध्वरे सुते सचा । देवेभिर् विप्रा ऋषयो नृचक्षसो वि पिबध्वं कुशिकाः सोम्यम् मधु ॥

haṃsā iva kṛṇutha ślokam adribhir madanto gīrbhir adhvare sute sacā | devebhir viprā ṛṣayo nṛcakṣaso vi pibadhvaṃ kuśikāḥ somyam madhu ||

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

Like swans, prepare a song of praise with pressing-stones, glad in your hymns with juice poured forth in sacrifice. Ye singers, with the Gods, sages who look on men, ye Kutikas drink up the Soma's savoury meath.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
