इन्द्र क्षत्रम् अभि वामम् ओजो ऽजायथा वृषभ चर्षणीनाम् । अपानुदो जनम् अमित्रयन्तम् उरुं देवेभ्यो अकृणोर् उ लोकम् ॥२॥

indra kṣatram abhi vāmam ojo 'jāyathā vṛṣabha carṣaṇīnām | apānudo janam amitrayantam uruṃ devebhyo akṛṇor u lokam ||2||

Thou, mighty Indra, sprangest into being as strength for lovely lordship o'er the people. Thou drovest off the folk who were unfriendly, and to the Gods thou gavest room and freedom.

mṛgo na bhīmaḥ kucaro giriṣṭhāḥ parāvata ā jagamyāt parasyāḥ | sṛkaṃ saṃśāya pavim indra tigmaṃ vi śatrūn tāḍhi vi mṛdho nudasva ||3||

Like a dread wild beast roaming on the mountain thou hast approached us from the farthest distance. Whetting thy bold and thy sharp blade, O Indra, crush thou the foe and scatter those who hate us.
