Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 6.40

इन्द्र पिब तुभ्यं सुतो मदायाव स्य हरी वि मुचा सखाया । उत प्र गाय गण आ निषद्याथा यज्ञाय गृणते वयो धाः ॥

indra piba tubhyaṃ suto madāyāva sya harī vi mucā sakhāyā | uta pra gāya gaṇa ā niṣadyāthā yajñāya gṛṇate vayo dhāḥ ||

Drink, Indra; juice is shed to make thee joyful: loose thy Bay Steeds and give thy friends their freedom. Begin the song, seated in our assembly. Give strength for sacrifice to him who singeth.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

अस्य पिब यस्य जज्ञान इन्द्र मदाय क्रत्वे अपिबो विरप्शिन् । तम् उ ते गावो नर आपो अद्रिर् इन्दुं सम् अह्यन् पीतये सम् अस्मै ॥

asya piba yasya jajñāna indra madāya kratve apibo virapśin | tam u te gāvo nara āpo adrir induṃ sam ahyan pītaye sam asmai ||

Drink thou of this whereof at birth, O Indra, thou drankest, Mighty One for power and rapture. The men, the pressing-stones, the cows, the waters have made this Soma ready for thy drinking.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

समिद्धे अग्नौ सुत इन्द्र सोम आ त्वा वहन्तु हरयो वहिष्ठाः । त्वायता मनसा जोहवीमीन्द्रा याहि सुविताय महे नः ॥

samiddhe agnau suta indra soma ā tvā vahantu harayo vahiṣṭhāḥ | tvāyatā manasā johavīmīndrā yāhi suvitāya mahe naḥ ||

The fire is kindled, Soma pressed, O Indra: let thy Bays, best to draw, convey thee hither. With mind devoted, Indra, I invoke thee. Come, for our great prosperity approach us.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

आ याहि शश्वद् उशता ययाथेन्द्र महा मनसा सोमपेयम् । उप ब्रह्माणि शृणव इमा नो ऽथा ते यज्ञस् तन्वे वयो धात् ॥

ā yāhi śaśvad uśatā yayāthendra mahā manasā somapeyam | upa brahmāṇi śṛṇava imā no 'thā te yajñas tanve vayo dhāt ||

Indra, come hither: evermore thou camest through our great strong desire to drink the Soma. Listen and hear the prayers which now we offer, and let this sacrifice increase thy vigour.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)

यद् इन्द्र दिवि पार्ये यद् ऋधग् यद् वा स्वे सदने यत्र वासि । अतो नो यज्ञम् अवसे नियुत्वान् सजोषाः पाहि गिर्वणो मरुद्भिः ॥

yad indra divi pārye yad ṛdhag yad vā sve sadane yatra vāsi | ato no yajñam avase niyutvān sajoṣāḥ pāhi girvaṇo marudbhiḥ ||

Mayst thou, O Indra, on the day of trial, present or absent, wheresoe'er thou dwellest, Thence, with thy team, accordant with the Maruts, Song-lover! guard our sacrifice, to help us.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
