ā no deva śavasā yāhi śuṣmin bhavā vṛdha indra rāyo asya | mahe nṛmṇāya nṛpate suvajra mahi kṣatrāya pauṃsyāya śūra ||
With power and strength, O Mighty God, approach us: be the augmenter, Indra, of these riches; Strong Thunderer, Lord of men, for potent valour, for manly exploit and for high dominion.
Thee, worth invoking, in the din of battle, heroes invoke in fray for life and sunlight. Among all people thou art foremost fighter: give up our enemies to easy slaughter.
ahā yad indra sudinā vyucchān dadho yat ketum upamaṃ samatsu | ny agniḥ sīdad asuro na hotā huvāno atra subhagāya devān ||
When fair bright days shall dawn on us, O Indra, and thou shalt bring thy banner near in battle, Agni the Asura shall sit as Herald, calling Gods hither for our great good fortune.
वयं ते त इन्द्र ये च देव स्तवन्त शूर ददतो मघानि । यच्छा सूरिभ्य उपमं वरूथं स्वाभुवो जरणाम् अश्नवन्त ॥
vayaṃ te ta indra ye ca deva stavanta śūra dadato maghāni | yacchā sūribhya upamaṃ varūthaṃ svābhuvo jaraṇām aśnavanta ||
Thine are we, Indra, thine, both these who praise thee, and those who give rich gifts, O God and Hero. Grant to our princes excellent protection, may they wax old and still be strong and happy.
वोचेमेद् इन्द्रम् मघवानम् एनम् महो रायो राधसो यद् ददन् नः । यो अर्चतो ब्रह्मकृतिम् अविष्ठो यूयम् पात स्वस्तिभिः सदा नः ॥
vocemed indram maghavānam enam maho rāyo rādhaso yad dadan naḥ | yo arcato brahmakṛtim aviṣṭho yūyam pāta svastibhiḥ sadā naḥ ||
We will address this liberal Lord, this Indra that he may grant us gifts of ample riches: Best favourer of the singer's prayer and praises. Preserve us evermore, ye Gods, with blessings.
