तं वः सखायो मदाय पुनानम् अभि गायत । शिशुं न यज्ञैः स्वदयन्त गूर्तिभिः ॥
taṃ vaḥ sakhāyo madāya punānam abhi gāyata | śiśuṃ na yajñaiḥ svadayanta gūrtibhiḥ ||
Sing; ye aloud, O friends, to him who makes him pure for gladdening drink: They shall make sweet the Child with sacrifice and laud.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
सं वत्स इव मातृभिर् इन्दुर् हिन्वानो अज्यते । देवावीर् मदो मतिभिः परिष्कृतः ॥
saṃ vatsa iva mātṛbhir indur hinvāno ajyate | devāvīr mado matibhiḥ pariṣkṛtaḥ ||
Like as a calf with mother cows, so Indu is urged forth and sent, Glorified by our hymns, the God-delighting juice.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
अयं दक्षाय साधनो ऽयं शर्धाय वीतये । अयं देवेभ्यो मधुमत्तमः सुतः ॥
ayaṃ dakṣāya sādhano 'yaṃ śardhāya vītaye | ayaṃ devebhyo madhumattamaḥ sutaḥ ||
Effectual means of power is he, he is a banquet for the Troop, He who hath been effused, most rich in meath, for Gods.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
गोमन् न इन्दो अश्ववत् सुतः सुदक्ष धन्व । शुचिं ते वर्णम् अधि गोषु दीधरम् ॥
goman na indo aśvavat sutaḥ sudakṣa dhanva | śuciṃ te varṇam adhi goṣu dīdharam ||
Flow to us, Indu, passing, strong, effused, with wealth of kine and steeds: I will spread forth above the milk thy radiant hue.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
स नो हरीणाम् पत इन्दो देवप्सरस्तमः । सखेव सख्ये नर्यो रुचे भव ॥
sa no harīṇām pata indo devapsarastamaḥ | sakheva sakhye naryo ruce bhava ||
Lord of the tawny, Indu thou who art the God's most special food, As Friend to friend, for splendour be thou good to men.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
सनेमि त्वम् अस्मद् आं अदेवं कं चिद् अत्रिणम् । साह्वां इन्दो परि बाधो अप द्वयुम् ॥
sanemi tvam asmad āṃ adevaṃ kaṃ cid atriṇam | sāhvāṃ indo pari bādho apa dvayum ||
Drive utterly, far away from us each godless, each voracious foe. O Indu, overcome and drive the false afar.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
