आ मध्वो अस्मा असिचन्न् अमत्रमिन्द्राय पूर्णं स हि सत्यराधाः । स वावृधे वरिमन्न् आ पृथिव्या अभि क्रत्वा नर्यः पौंस्यैश्च
To Indra, the full measure of the sweet drink has been poured, for he is truly worthy of gifts. He has grown in greatness, reaching the expanse of the earth, excelling in power and heroic deeds.
व्यानळ् इन्द्रः पृतनाः स्वोजा आस्मै यतन्ते सख्याय पूर्वीः । आ स्मा रथं न पृतनासु तिष्ठ यं भद्रया सुमत्या चोदयासे
Indra has scattered the hosts of foes with his own strength; many strive for his friendship. Stand firm in the battle as in a chariot, whom you, with gracious favor, urge onward.
आ सत्यो यातु मघवाँ ऋजीषी द्रवन्त्वस्य हरय उप नः । तस्मा इदन्धः सुषुमा सुदक्षमिहाभिपित्वं करते गृणानः
Let the true and generous Indra come here, eager for battle; let his steeds swiftly approach us. To him, the inspired one, we offer this bright, skillful praise, seeking his favor here.
अव स्य शूराध्वनो नान्तेऽस्मिन् नो अद्य सवने मन्दध्यै । शंसात्युक्थमुशनेव वेधाश्चिकितुषे असुर्याय मन्म
At the end of his heroic path, let Indra, the mighty, rejoice in this today's pressing. The inspired one proclaims the hymn, as the wise craftsman, for the knowing lord, utters the sacred word.
कविर्न निण्यं विदथानि साधन् वृषा यत्सेकं विपिपानो अर्चात्। दिव इत्था जीजनत्सप्त कारून् अह्ना चिच्चक्रुर्वयुना गृणन्तः
Like a sage, he knows the hidden ways and accomplishes the rites; as a bull, he pours out the one stream, singing aloud. Thus he created seven singers in the sky, who, even by day, performed their works, praising him.
स्वर्यद्वेदि सुदृशीकमर्कैर्महि ज्योती रुरुचुर्यद्ध वस्तोः । अन्धा तमांसि दुधिता विचक्षे नृभ्यश्चकार नृतमो अभिष्टौ
He, knowing the heavenly order, shone forth with radiant hymns; great light blazed when he loosed the dawn. He scattered the darkness and saw clearly; he, most heroic among men, brought help to the people.
ववक्ष इन्द्रो अमितमृजिष्युभे आ पप्रौ रोदसी महित्वा । अतश्चिदस्य महिमा वि रेच्यभि यो विश्वा भुवना बभूव
Indra, the unconquered, grew vast in might; he filled both heaven and earth with greatness. Therefore, his majesty is to be praised, for he became all the worlds.
विश्वानि शक्रो नर्याणि विद्वान् अपो रिरेच सखिभिर्निकामैः । अश्मानं चिद्ये बिभिदुर्वचोभिर्व्रजं गोमन्तमुशिजो वि वव्रुः
Knowing all heroic deeds, Shakra released the waters with his companions, by his will. Even the stone they split with their words; the seekers broke open the cattle-pen rich in cows.
अपो वृत्रं वव्रिवांसं पराहन् प्रावत्ते वज्रं पृथिवी सचेताः । प्रार्णांसि समुद्रियाण्यैनोः पतिर्भवं छवसा शूर धृष्णो
He drove away Vritra, who held back the waters; the earth, conscious, received the thunderbolt. You, O bold hero, became lord of the flowing streams and oceanic spaces by your power.
अपो यदद्रिं पुरुहूत दर्दराविर्भुवत्सरमा पूर्व्यं ते । स नो नेता वाजमा दर्षि भूरिं गोत्रा रुजन्न् अङ्गिरोभिर्गृणानः
When, O much-invoked one, you shattered the rock, the ancient Sarama appeared. Be our leader to abundant wealth; breaking the barriers, you, praised by the Angirases, saw many riches.
तद्वो गाय सुते सचा पुरुहूताय सत्वने । शं यद्गवे न शाकिने
Sing that for yourselves at the pressing, together with the much-invoked one, for strength, as one would for a cow, for prosperity.
न घा वसुर्नि यमते दानं वाजस्य गोमतः । यत्सीमुप श्रवद्गिरः
Indeed, the generous one does not withhold the gift of wealth rich in cattle, when the hymns reach him.
कुवित्सस्य प्र हि व्रजं गोमन्तं दस्युहा गमत्। शचीभिरप नो वरत्
Perhaps he will go forth to the cattle-rich enclosure of the foe-slayer; may he, with his powers, ward off our enemies.
इन्द्र क्रतुं न आ भर पिता पुत्रेभ्यो यथा । शिक्षा णो अस्मिन् पुरुहूत यामनि जीवा ज्योतिरशीमहि
Indra, bring us wisdom as a father gives to his sons. Teach us, much-invoked one, on this path, that we may attain living light.
मा नो अज्ञाता वृजना दुराध्यो माशिवासो अव क्रमुः । त्वया वयं प्रवतः शश्वतीरपोऽति शूर तरामसि
Let not unknown or hostile men, nor evil dwellers, overtake us. With you, O hero, we shall always cross the deep waters safely.
इन्द्र ज्येष्ठं न आ भरमोजिष्ठं पपुरि श्रवः । येनेमे चित्र वज्रहस्त रोदसी ओभे सुशिप्र प्राः
Indra, bring us the greatest and most powerful fame, O strong one with the thunderbolt in hand, by which you, O beautiful-jawed, have filled both these shining worlds.
त्वामुग्रमवसे चर्षणीसहं राजन् देवेषु हूमहे । विश्वा सु नो विथुरा पिब्दना वसोऽमित्रान् सुषहान् कृधि
We call upon you, O mighty one, support of people, king, among the gods; O treasure, may all hostile powers drink destruction for us; make our enemies easily subdued.
यद्द्याव इन्द्र ते शतं शतं भूमिरुत स्युः । न त्वा वज्रिन्त्सहस्रं सूर्या अनु न जातमष्ट रोदसी
Even if, O Indra, you had a hundred heavens, a hundred earths, or even more, not a thousand thunders, nor the suns, nor all that is born between the two worlds, could match you.
आ पप्राथ महिना कृष्ण्या वृषन् विश्वा शविष्ठ शवसा । अस्मामव मघवन् गोमति व्रजे वज्रिं चित्राभिरूतिभिः
You have stretched forth, O powerful bull, with your great might, pervading all with your strength; come to our aid, O bountiful one, in the cattle-rich enclosure, O wielder of the thunderbolt, with your splendid aids.
यदिन्द्र यावतस्त्वमेतावदहमीशीय । स्तोतारमिद्दिधिषेय रदावसो न पापत्वाय रासीय
O Indra, as much as you are, so much may I be master; may I cherish the praiser, O giver of wealth; may I not bestow upon the wicked.
शिक्षेयमिन् महयते दिवेदिवे राय आ कुहचिद्विदे । नहि त्वदन्यन् मघवन् न आप्यं वस्यो अस्ति पिता चन
May I learn, for the one who magnifies you, day by day, to grant wealth wherever he desires; for, O bountiful one, there is no other, not even a father, who is a giver of riches like you.
यदिन्द्र यावतस्त्वमेतावदहमीशीय । स्तोतारमिद्दिधिषेय रदावसो न पापत्वाय रासीय
O Indra, as much as you are, so much may I be master; may I cherish the praiser, O giver of wealth; may I not bestow upon the wicked.
शिक्षेयमिन् महयते दिवेदिवे राय आ कुहचिद्विदे । नहि त्वदन्यन् मघवन् न आप्यं वस्यो अस्ति पिता चन
May I learn, for the one who magnifies you, day by day, to grant wealth wherever he desires; for, O bountiful one, there is no other, not even a father, who is a giver of riches like you.
इन्द्रा याहि चित्रभानो सुता इमे त्वायवः । अण्वीभिस्तना पूतासः
Indra, come, O radiant one; these pressed libations are for you; purified by slender streams.
इन्द्रा याहि धियेषितो विप्रजुतः सुतावतः । उप ब्रह्माणि वाघतः
Indra, come, impelled by prayer, accompanied by the wise, to the pressed libations, to the hymns of the singers.
इन्द्रा याहि तूतुजान उप ब्रह्माणि हरिवः । सुते दधिष्व नश्चनः
Indra, come swiftly, O tawny one, to the hymns; place yourself at the pressed libation for our protection.
मा चिदन्यद्वि शंसत सखायो मा रिषण्यत । इन्द्रमित्स्तोता वृषणं सचा सुते मुहुरुक्था च शंसत
Speak not of anything else, O friends, nor fall into harm; praise Indra, the mighty one, together at the pressing, and repeatedly recite hymns.
अवक्रक्षिणं वृषभं यथाजुरं गां न चर्षणीसहम् । विद्वेषणं संवननोभयंकरं मंहिष्ठमुभयाविनम्
Like a bull, unconquered, strong as a cow among men, a destroyer of foes, a uniter, a doer of both, the greatest, the master of both sides.
यच्चिद्धि त्वा जना इमे नाना हवन्त ऊतये । अस्माकं ब्रह्मेदमिन्द्र भूतु तेऽहा विश्वा च वर्धनम्
Whatever people here call upon you for help, let this our hymn, O Indra, be for you; may it be for our increase today and always.
वि तर्तूर्यन्ते मघवन् विपश्चितोऽर्यो विपो जनानाम् । उप क्रमस्व पुरुरूपमा भर वाजं नेदिष्ठमूतये
The wise, O bountiful one, surpass in speech, the noble surpass the people; approach with manifold forms, bring the prize nearest for our aid.
