Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 7.47

आपो यं वः प्रथमं देवयन्त इन्द्रपानम् ऊर्मिम् अकृण्वतेळः । तं वो वयं शुचिम् अरिप्रम् अद्य घृतप्रुषम् मधुमन्तं वनेम ॥

āpo yaṃ vaḥ prathamaṃ devayanta indrapānam ūrmim akṛṇvateḷaḥ | taṃ vo vayaṃ śucim aripram adya ghṛtapruṣam madhumantaṃ vanema ||

May we obtain this day from you, O Waters, that wave of pure refreshment, which the pious Made erst the special beverage of Indra, bright, stainless, rich in sweets and dropping fatness.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

तम् ऊर्मिम् आपो मधुमत्तमं वो ऽपां नपाद् अवत्व् आशुहेमा । यस्मिन्न् इन्द्रो वसुभिर् मादयाते तम् अश्याम देवयन्तो वो अद्य ॥

tam ūrmim āpo madhumattamaṃ vo 'pāṃ napād avatv āśuhemā | yasminn indro vasubhir mādayāte tam aśyāma devayanto vo adya ||

May the Floods' Offspring, he whose course is rapid, protect that wave most rich in sweets, O Waters, That shall make Indra and the Vasus joyful. This may we gain from you to-day, we pious.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

शतपवित्राः स्वधया मदन्तीर् देवीर् देवानाम् अपि यन्ति पाथः । ता इन्द्रस्य न मिनन्ति व्रतानि सिन्धुभ्यो हव्यं घृतवज् जुहोत ॥

śatapavitrāḥ svadhayā madantīr devīr devānām api yanti pāthaḥ | tā indrasya na minanti vratāni sindhubhyo havyaṃ ghṛtavaj juhota ||

All-purifying, joying in their nature, to paths of Gods the Goddesses move onward. They never violate the laws of Indra. Present the oil-rich offering to the Rivers.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

याः सूर्यो रश्मिभिर् आततान याभ्य इन्द्रो अरदद् गातुम् ऊर्मिम् । ते सिन्धवो वरिवो धातना नो यूयम् पात स्वस्तिभिः सदा नः ॥

yāḥ sūryo raśmibhir ātatāna yābhya indro aradad gātum ūrmim | te sindhavo varivo dhātanā no yūyam pāta svastibhiḥ sadā naḥ ||

Whom Surya with his bright beams hath attracted, and Indra dug the path for them to travel, May these Streams give us ample room and freedom. Preserve us evermore, ye Gods, with blessings.
