RV 5.53.16

स्तुहि भोजान् स्तुवतो अस्य यामनि रणन् गावो न यवसे । यतः पूर्वां इव सखींर् अनु ह्वय गिरा गृणीहि कामिनः ॥

stuhi bhojān stuvato asya yāmani raṇan gāvo na yavase | yataḥ pūrvāṃ iva sakhīṃr anu hvaya girā gṛṇīhi kāminaḥ ||

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

Praise the Free-givers. At this liberal patron's rite they joy like cattle in the mead. So call thou unto them who come as ancient Friends: hymn those who love thee with a song.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
