इमे हि ते ब्रह्मकृतः सुते सचा मधौ न मक्ष आसते । इन्द्रे कामं जरितारो वसूयवो रथे न पादम् आ दधुः ॥
ime hi te brahmakṛtaḥ sute sacā madhau na makṣa āsate | indre kāmaṃ jaritāro vasūyavo rathe na pādam ā dadhuḥ ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
For here, like flies on honey, these who pray to thee sit by the juice that they have poured. Wealth-craving singers have on Indra set their hope, as men set foot upon a car.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
