RV 9.96.23
अपघ्नन्न् एषि पवमान शत्रून् प्रियां न जारो अभिगीत इन्दुः । सीदन् वनेषु शकुनो न पत्वा सोमः पुनानः कलशेषु सत्ता ॥
apaghnann eṣi pavamāna śatrūn priyāṃ na jāro abhigīta induḥ | sīdan vaneṣu śakuno na patvā somaḥ punānaḥ kalaśeṣu sattā ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
Chasing our foes thou comest, Pavamana Indu, besting, as lover to his darling. As a bird flies and settles in the forest, thus Soma settles, purified, in goblets.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
