सुवीर्यं स्वश्व्यं सुगव्यमिन्द्र दद्धि नः । होतेव पूर्वचित्तये प्राध्वरे
O Indra, grant us heroic strength, fine horses, and good cattle, as the Hotṛ does for those who have gone before, at the sacrifice.
इन्द्रः सुतेषु सोमेषु क्रतुं पुनीत उक्थ्यम् । विदे वृधस्य दक्षसो महान्हि षः
Indra, in the pressed Somas, purifies his power and his praise; he is great indeed, possessing the wisdom of the mighty.
स प्रथमे व्योमनि देवानां सदने वृधः । सुपारः सुश्रवस्तमः समप्सुजित्
He, the ancient one, in the first heaven, in the seat of the gods, is mighty, most skillful, most renowned, victorious in battles.
तमह्वे वाजसातय इन्द्रं भराय शुष्मिणम् । भवा नः सुम्ने अन्तमः सखा वृधे
We call that Indra, full of might, to win the prize; be for us, O friend, most gracious and supportive.
इयं त इन्द्र गिर्वणो रातिः क्षरति सुन्वतः । मन्दानो अस्य बर्हिषो वि राजसि
This bounty of yours, O Indra, lover of song, flows to the one who presses the Soma; delighting in this seat, you shine forth.
नूनं तदिन्द्र दद्धि नो यत्त्वा सुन्वन्त ईमहे । रयिं नश्चित्रमा भरा स्वर्विदम्
Now, O Indra, grant us that which we, the Soma-pressers, seek from you; bring us splendid wealth, full of light.
स्तोता यत्ते विचर्षणिरतिप्रशर्धयद्गिरः । वया इवानु रोहते जुषन्त यत्
The praiser, wise among men, exalts you with his songs; as birds follow their mother, so they seek your favor.
प्रत्नवज्जनया गिरः शृणुधी जरितुर्हवम् । मदेमदे ववक्षिथा सुकृत्वने
Hear, as of old, the songs of the singer, listen to the call of the worshipper; may you, rejoicing, increase the doer of good.
क्रीळन्त्यस्य सूनृता आपो न प्रवता यतीः । अया धिया य उच्यते पतिर्दिवः
His gracious gifts play like waters rushing down a slope; with this thought, he is called the Lord of Heaven.
उतो पतिर्य उच्यते कृष्टीनामेक इद्वशी । नमोवृधैरवस्युभिः सुते रण
And he who is called the Lord of peoples, the sole master, is invoked with reverence and prayers at the Soma pressing.
स्तुहि श्रुतं विपश्चितं हरी यस्य प्रसक्षिणा । गन्तारा दाशुषो गृहं नमस्विनः
Praise him who is famed and wise, whose two steeds are ever victorious, who comes to the worshipper’s house, honored with reverence.
तूतुजानो महेमतेऽश्वेभिः प्रुषितप्सुभिः । आ याहि यज्ञमाशुभिः शमिद्धि ते
Eager for great wealth, come with your horses, with those who scatter the waters; come swiftly to the sacrifice—may it be pleasing to you.
इन्द्र शविष्ठ सत्पते रयिं गृणत्सु धारय । श्रवः सूरिभ्यो अमृतं वसुत्वनम्
Indra, most powerful, lord of the good, support wealth for those who praise; grant the immortal fame and riches to the noble ones.
हवे त्वा सूर उदिते हवे मध्यंदिने दिवः । जुषाण इन्द्र सप्तिभिर्न आ गहि
At sunrise I call to you, at midday I call to you, O Indra; accepting, come to us with your team of horses.
आ तू गहि प्र तु द्रव मत्स्वा सुतस्य गोमतः । तन्तुं तनुष्व पूर्व्यं यथा विदे
Come here, hasten forward, delight in the pressed Soma rich in cows; weave the ancient thread as you know how.
यच्छक्रासि परावति यदर्वावति वृत्रहन् । यद्वा समुद्रे अन्धसोऽवितेदसि
Whatever you do, O slayer of Vṛtra, whether far or near, or even in the sea, you are the protector of the Soma draught.
इन्द्रं वर्धन्तु नो गिर इन्द्रं सुतास इन्दवः । इन्द्रे हविष्मतीर्विशो अराणिषुः
May our songs strengthen Indra, may the pressed Somas strengthen Indra; may the worshipful hosts kindle Indra at the offerings.
तमिद्विप्रा अवस्यवः प्रवत्वतीभिरूतिभिः । इन्द्रं क्षोणीरवर्धयन्वया इव
The inspired ones, seeking help, have magnified Indra with their flowing praises; the earths have made Indra grow, as mothers their sons.
त्रिकद्रुकेषु चेतनं देवासो यज्ञमत्नत । तमिद्वर्धन्तु नो गिरः सदावृधम्
The gods have toiled for awareness in the threefold pressing; let our hymns increase him, ever-growing.
स्तोता यत्ते अनुव्रत उक्थान्यृतुथा दधे । शुचिः पावक उच्यते सो अद्भुतः
The praiser, faithful to you, has composed hymns in due order; pure and radiant, he is called wondrous.
तदिद्रुद्रस्य चेतति यह्वं प्रत्नेषु धामसु । मनो यत्रा वि तद्दधुर्विचेतसः
That awareness of Rudra stirs, the mighty one, in ancient abodes; where the mind, discerning, has been placed.
यदि मे सख्यमावर इमस्य पाह्यन्धसः । येन विश्वा अति द्विषो अतारिम
If you grant me friendship, protect me from this drink; by which we have overcome all hatred.
कदा त इन्द्र गिर्वण स्तोता भवाति शंतमः । कदा नो गव्ये अश्व्ये वसौ दधः
When, O Indra, speaker of praise, will the praiser become most blessed? When will you grant us wealth in cattle and horses?
उत ते सुष्टुता हरी वृषणा वहतो रथम् । अजुर्यस्य मदिन्तमं यमीमहे
And your well-praised, mighty steeds draw the chariot; of the undying, most exhilarating one, whom we invoke.
तमीमहे पुरुष्टुतं यह्वं प्रत्नाभिरूतिभिः । नि बर्हिषि प्रिये सददध द्विता
We invoke the much-praised, mighty one with ancient aids; let him sit twice on the beloved sacrificial grass.
वर्धस्वा सु पुरुष्टुत ऋषिष्टुताभिरूतिभिः । धुक्षस्व पिप्युषीमिषमवा च नः
Grow strong, O much-praised, with the aids of the sages; pour forth nourishing food and help us.
इन्द्र त्वमवितेदसीत्था स्तुवतो अद्रिवः । ऋतादियर्मि ते धियं मनोयुजम्
Indra, you have become the helper of the one who praises, O stone-bearer; I direct to you a thought yoked to the mind, proceeding from truth.
इह त्या सधमाद्या युजानः सोमपीतये । हरी इन्द्र प्रतद्वसू अभि स्वर
Here, those who share the feast, yoked for the drinking of Soma, O Indra, let your steeds bring forth the wealth.
अभि स्वरन्तु ये तव रुद्रासः सक्षत श्रियम् । उतो मरुत्वतीर्विशो अभि प्रयः
Let those who are your Rudras bring forth glory; and let the Marut-hosts bring forth abundance.
इमा अस्य प्रतूर्तयः पदं जुषन्त यद्दिवि । नाभा यज्ञस्य सं दधुर्यथा विदे
These his achievements delight in his path in heaven; at the navel of the sacrifice, they unite as is known.
