4.35.1

इ॒होप॑ यात शवसो नपात॒: सौध॑न्वना ऋभवो॒ माप॑ भूत | अ॒स्मिन् हि व॒: सव॑ने रत्न॒धेयं॒ गम॒न्त्विन्द्र॒मनु॑ वो॒ मदा॑सः ||

Come hither, O ye Sons of Strength, ye Ṛbhus; stay not afar, ye Children of Sudhanvan. At this libation is your gift of treasure. Let gladdening draughts approach you after Indra's.

4.35.2

आग॑न्नृभू॒णामि॒ह र॑त्न॒धेय॒मभू॒त् सोम॑स्य॒ सुषु॑तस्य पी॒तिः | सु॒कृ॒त्यया॒ यत् स्व॑प॒स्यया॑ चँ॒ एकं॑ विच॒क्र च॑म॒सं च॑तु॒र्धा ||

Hither is come the Ṛbhus' gift of riches; here was the drinking of the well-pressed Soma, Since by dexterity and skill as craftsmen ye made the single chalice to be fourfold

4.35.3

व्य॑कृणोत चम॒सं च॑तु॒र्धा सखे॒ वि शि॒क्षेत्य॑ब्रवीत | अथै॑त वाजा अ॒मृत॑स्य॒ पन्थां॑ ग॒णं दे॒वाना॑मृभवः सुहस्ताः ||

Ye made fourfold the chalice that wag single: ye spake these words and said, O Friend, assist us; Then, Vājas! gained the path of life eternal, deft-handed Ṛbhus, to the Gods’ assembly.

4.35.4

कि॒मय॑: स्विच्चम॒स ए॒ष आ॑स॒ यं काव्ये॑न च॒तुरो॑ विच॒क्र | अथा॑ सुनुध्वं॒ सव॑नं॒ मदा॑य पा॒त ऋ॑भवो॒ मधु॑नः सो॒म्यस्य॑ ||

Out of what substance was that chalice fashioned which ye made fourfold by your art and wisdom? Now for the gladdening draught press out the liquor, and drink, O Ṛbhus, of die meath of Soma.

4.35.5

शच्या॑कर्त पि॒तरा॒ युवा॑ना॒ शच्या॑कर्त चम॒सं दे॑व॒पान॑म् | शच्या॒ हरी॒ धनु॑तरावतष्टेन्द्र॒वाहा॑वृभवो वाजरत्नाः ||

Ye with your cunning made your Parents youthful; the cup, for Gods to drink, ye formed with cunning; With cunning, Ṛbhus, rich in treasure, fashioned the two swift Tawny Steeds who carry Indra.

4.35.6

यो व॑: सु॒नोत्य॑भिपि॒त्वे अह्नां॑ ती॒व्रं वा॑जास॒: सव॑नं॒ मदा॑य | तस्मै॑ र॒यिमृ॑भव॒: सर्व॑वीर॒मा त॑क्षत वृषणो मन्दसा॒नाः ||

Whoso pours out for you, when days are closing, the sharp libation for your joy, O Vājas, For him, O mighty Ṛbhus, ye, rejoicing, have fashioned wealth with plenteous store of heroes.

4.35.7

प्रा॒तः सु॒तम॑पिबो हर्यश्व॒ माध्यं॑दिनं॒ सव॑नं॒ केव॑लं ते | समृ॒भुभि॑: पिबस्व रत्न॒धेभि॒: सखीँ॒र्याँ इ॑न्द्र चकृ॒षे सु॑कृ॒त्या ||

Lord of Bay Steeds, at dawn the juice thou drankest: thine, only thine, is the noonday libation. Now drink thou with the wealth-bestowing Ṛbhus, whom for their skill thou madest friends, O Indra.

4.35.8

ये दे॒वासो॒ अभ॑वता सुकृ॒त्या श्ये॒ना इ॒वेदधि॑ दि॒वि नि॑षे॒द | ते रत्नं॑ धात शवसो नपात॒: सौध॑न्वना॒ अभ॑वता॒मृता॑सः ||

Ye, whom your artist skill hath raised to Godhead have set you down above in heaven like falcons. So give us riches, Children of Sudhanvan, O Sons of Strength; ye have become immortal.

4.35.9

यत्तृ॒तीयं॒ सव॑नं रत्न॒धेय॒मकृ॑णुध्वं स्वप॒स्या सु॑हस्ताः | तदृ॑भव॒: परि॑षिक्तं व ए॒तत् सं मदे॑भिरिन्द्रि॒येभि॑: पिबध्वम् ||

The third libation, that bestoweth treasure, which ye have won by skill, ye dexterous-handed,— This drink hath been effused for you, O Ṛbhus . drink it with high delight, with joy like Indra's.
