Samaveda — Uttararchika — Chapter 1114

SV 2 1114.1

तरोभिर्वो विदद्वसुमिन्द्रं सबाध ऊतये । बृहद्गायन्तः सुतसोमे अध्वरे हुवे भरं न कारिणं

tarobhirvo vidadvasumindraṃ sabādha ūtaye | bṛhadgāyantaḥ sutasome adhvare huve bharaṃ na kāriṇaṃ

With (our) energies, hard-pressed, (we call) for your help upon Indra the finder of goods; singing aloud at the rite where the soma is pressed, I call (him) as one who wins the stake in a contest.

AI translation rendered from the Sanskrit, not a published edition — the model flagged this verse as uncertain

Compare with Ralph T.H. Griffith

Loud-singing at tbe sacred rite where Soma flows, we priests invoke. With haste, that he may help, as the bard's cherisher. Indra who findeth wealth for you.

— tr. Ralph T.H. Griffith (1893)

SV 2 1114.2

न यं दुध्रा वरन्ते न स्थिरा मुरो मदेषु शिप्रमन्धसः । य आदृत्या शशमानाय सुन्वते दाता जरित्र उक्थ्यं

na yaṃ dudhrā varante na sthirā muro madeṣu śipramandhasaḥ | ya ādṛtyā śaśamānāya sunvate dātā jaritra ukthyaṃ

Whom neither unruly nor firm obstructors hold back, the fair-jawed one in the raptures of the juice; who, showing regard, is the giver of what is praiseworthy to the man who labours and presses, to the singer.

AI translation rendered from the Sanskrit, not a published edition

Compare with Ralph T.H. Griffith

Whom, fair of cheek, in rapture of the juice, the firm resistless slayers hinder not: Giver of glorious wealth to him who sings his praise, honouring him who toils and pours.

— tr. Ralph T.H. Griffith (1893)
