Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 9.54

अस्य प्रत्नाम् अनु द्युतं शुक्रं दुदुह्रे अह्रयः । पयः सहस्रसाम् ऋषिम् ॥

asya pratnām anu dyutaṃ śukraṃ duduhre ahrayaḥ | payaḥ sahasrasām ṛṣim ||

After his ancient splendour, they, the bold, have drawn the bright milk from The Sage who wins a thousand gifts.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

अयं सूर्य इवोपदृग् अयं सरांसि धावति । सप्त प्रवत आ दिवम् ॥

ayaṃ sūrya ivopadṛg ayaṃ sarāṃsi dhāvati | sapta pravata ā divam ||

In aspect he is like the Sun; he runneth forward to the lakes, Seven currents flowing through the sky.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

अयं विश्वानि तिष्ठति पुनानो भुवनोपरि । सोमो देवो न सूर्यः ॥

ayaṃ viśvāni tiṣṭhati punāno bhuvanopari | somo devo na sūryaḥ ||

He, shining in his splendour, stands high over all things that exist- Soma, a God as Surya is.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

परि णो देववीतये वाजां अर्षसि गोमतः । पुनान इन्दव् इन्द्रयुः ॥

pari ṇo devavītaye vājāṃ arṣasi gomataḥ | punāna indav indrayuḥ ||

Thou, Indu, in thy brilliancy, pourest on us, as Indra's Friend, Wealth from the kine to feast the Gods.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
