अमन्महीद् अनाशवो ऽनुग्रासश् च वृत्रहन् । सुकृत् सु ते महता शूर राधसानु स्तोमं मुदीमहि ॥२॥

amanmahīd anāśavo 'nugrāsaś ca vṛtrahan | sukṛt su te mahatā śūra rādhasānu stomaṃ mudīmahi ||2||

O Vrtra-slayer, we were thought slow and unready for the fray. Yet once in thy great bounty may we have delight, O Hero, after praising thee.
