Rig Veda Book 1. Hymn Xv. Tu

"Rig Veda", tr. by Ralph T.H. Griffith, [1896],
Hymn Xv. Tu.
1 O Indra drink the Soma juice with tu; let the cheering drops
Sink deep within, which settle there.
2 Drink from the Purifier's cup, Maruts, with tu; sanctify
The rite, for ye give precious gifts.
3 O Near, with thy Dame accept our sacrifice; with tu drink,
For thou art he who giveth wealth.
4 Bring the Gods, Agni; in the three appointed places set them down:
Surround them, and with tu drink.
5 Drink Soma after the tus, from the Brhmaa's bounty: undissolved,
O Indra, is thy friendship's bond.
6 Mitra, Varua, ye whose ways are firm--a Power that none deceives--,
With tu ye have reached the rite.
7 The Soma-pressers, fain for wealth, praise the Wealth-giver in the rite,
In sacrifices praise the God.
8 May the Wealth-giver grant to us riches that shall be far renowned.
These things we gain, among the Gods.
9 He with the tu fain would drink, Wealth-giver, from the Near's bowl.
Haste, give your offering, and depart.
10 As we this fourth time, Wealth-giver, honour thee with the tus, be
A Giver bountiful to us.
11 Drink ye the meath, O Avins bright with flames, whose acts are pure, who with
tus accept the sacrifice.
12 With tu, through the house-fire, thou, kind Giver, guidest sacrifice:
Worship the Gods for the pious man.
