SV 2 5101.1

शिशुं जज्ञानं हर्यतं मृजन्ति शुम्भन्ति विप्रं मरुतो गणेन । कविर्गीर्भिः काव्येना कविः सन्त्सोमः पवित्रमत्येति रेभन्

śiśuṃ jajñānaṃ haryataṃ mṛjanti śumbhanti vipraṃ maruto gaṇena | kavirgīrbhiḥ kāvyenā kaviḥ santsomaḥ pavitramatyeti rebhan

The Maruts with their troop cleanse and adorn the newborn child, the desirable one, the inspired singer; being a poet through songs, a poet through poetic skill, Soma passes over the filter, singing.

Compare with Ralph T.H. Griffith

The Maruts with their troop adorn and brighten, even at his birth, the Sage, the lovely infant. By songs a poet, and a Sage by wisdom, Soma goes singing through the cleansing filter.

— tr. Ralph T.H. Griffith (1893)

ऋषिमना य ऋषिकृत्स्वर्षाः सहस्रनीथः पदवीः कवीनां । तृतीयं धाम महिषः सिषासन्त्सोमो विराजमनु राजति ष्टुप्

He of the mind of a ṛṣi, who makes ṛṣis, who wins the sun, of a thousand songs, the guide of poets—the buffalo, seeking to gain the third abode, Soma shines in accord with the Virāj, (the) Stubh.

Hawk seated in the press, bird wide-extended, the banner seeking kine and wielding weapons, Uniting with the sea, the wave of waters, the mighty tells his fourth form and declares it.
