SV 2 3111.1

तवाहं सोम रारण सख्य इन्दो दिवेदिवे । पुरूणि बभ्रो नि चरन्ति मामव परिधीं रति तांइहि

tavāhaṃ soma rāraṇa sakhya indo divedive | purūṇi babhro ni caranti māmava paridhīṃ rati tāṃihi

In your friendship, Soma, I have taken delight, O Indu, day after day. Many (assailants), O brown one, move down upon me: help me past those enclosures, come.

SV 2 3111.2

तवाहं नक्तमुत सोम ते दिवा दुहानो बभ्र ऊधनि । घृणा तपन्तमति सूर्यं परः शकुना इव पप्तिम

tavāhaṃ naktamuta soma te divā duhāno babhra ūdhani | ghṛṇā tapantamati sūryaṃ paraḥ śakunā iva paptima

Yours am I by night and yours too by day, O Soma, milking (you), O brown one, at the udder; we have flown beyond the sun that burns with heat, like birds.

Close to thy bosom am I. Soma, day and night draining the milk, O golden hued. Surya himself refulgent with his glow have we, as birds, o'ertaken in his course.
