एतत्त इन्द्र वीर्यं गीर्भिर्गृणन्ति कारवः । ते स्तोभन्त ऊर्जमावन्घृतश्चुतं पौरासो नक्षन्धीतिभिः
This heroic deed of yours, Indra, the poets celebrate with songs. They praise you, bringer of strength, pouring forth clarified butter, the men of old honor you with their thoughts.
नक्षन्त इन्द्रमवसे सुकृत्यया येषां सुतेषु मन्दसे । यथा संवर्ते अमदो यथा कृश एवास्मे इन्द्र मत्स्व
They honor Indra for help, for good deeds, in whose pressings he delights; as you were joyful with Samvarana, as with Krisha, so delight in us, Indra.
आ नो विश्वे सजोषसो देवासो गन्तनोप नः । वसवो रुद्रा अवसे न आ गमञ्छृण्वन्तु मरुतो हवम्
May all the gods together come to us, may they approach us. May the Vasus and Rudras come for our aid, may the Maruts hear our call.
पूषा विष्णुर्हवनं मे सरस्वत्यवन्तु सप्त सिन्धवः । आपो वातः पर्वतासो वनस्पतिः शृणोतु पृथिवी हवम्
May Pūṣan, Viṣṇu, and Sarasvatī attend my invocation; may the seven rivers, the waters, the wind, the mountains, the lord of the forest, and the earth hear my call.
यदिन्द्र राधो अस्ति ते माघोनं मघवत्तम । तेन नो बोधि सधमाद्यो वृधे भगो दानाय वृत्रहन्
Whatever wealth, O Indra, you possess, most generous, best of the generous, with that, be mindful of us in the assembly; may Bhaga, the giver, increase our share for giving, O slayer of Vṛtra.
आजिपते नृपते त्वमिद्धि नो वाज आ वक्षि सुक्रतो । वीती होत्राभिरुत देववीतिभिः ससवांसो वि शृण्विरे
O lord of the contest, lord of men, lead us to strength, O wise one. With our offerings and divine invocations, may we, striving, be heard.
सन्ति ह्यर्य आशिष इन्द्र आयुर्जनानाम् । अस्मान्नक्षस्व मघवन्नुपावसे धुक्षस्व पिप्युषीमिषम्
Indeed, noble blessings exist, Indra, for the life of people. O generous one, grant them to us; pour forth nourishing food for the worshipper.
वयं त इन्द्र स्तोमेभिर्विधेम त्वमस्माकं शतक्रतो । महि स्थूरं शशयं राधो अह्रयं प्रस्कण्वाय नि तोशय
We offer you, Indra, our praises; you, wielder of the thunderbolt, are ours. Bestow great, abundant, and splendid wealth without delay; gladden Praskanva with it.
भूरीदिन्द्रस्य वीर्यं व्यख्यमभ्यायति । राधस्ते दस्यवे वृक
The many heroic deeds of Indra are proclaimed and approach us. Your wealth, O wolf, is for the enemy.
शतं श्वेतास उक्षणो दिवि तारो न रोचन्ते । मह्ना दिवं न तस्तभुः
A hundred white bulls shine in the sky like stars. By their greatness, they have not pressed down the heavens.
शतं वेणूञ्छतं शुनः शतं चर्माणि म्लातानि । शतं मे बल्बजस्तुका अरुषीणां चतुःशतम्
A hundred reeds, a hundred dogs, a hundred worn-out hides, a hundred tufts of wool, and four hundred reddish ones.
सुदेवा स्थ काण्वायना वयोवयो विचरन्तः । अश्वासो न चङ्क्रमत
The Kanva descendants are blessed, wandering from youth to youth. The horses do not tire.
आदित्साप्तस्य चर्किरन्नानूनस्य महि श्रवः । श्यावीरतिध्वसन्पथश्चक्षुषा चन संनशे
From the seven, they praised the fame of the abundant one. The dark ones, with dust-covered paths, are not lost even by sight.
प्रति ते दस्यवे वृक राधो अदर्श्यह्रयम् । द्यौर्न प्रथिना शवः
Against the enemy, O wolf, your wealth appeared, undiminished. Like the vast strength of the sky.
दश मह्यं पौतक्रतः सहस्रा दस्यवे वृकः । नित्याद्रायो अमंहत
Ten thousand, O Pūtakratu, for me; ten thousand, O wolf, for the enemy. The perpetual riches are unharmed.
शतं मे गर्दभानां शतमूर्णावतीनाम् । शतं दासाँ अति स्रजः
A hundred of my asses, a hundred of those with wool, a hundred slaves, and many garlands.
तत्रो अपि प्राणीयत पूतक्रतायै व्यक्ता । अश्वानामिन्न यूथ्याम्
There, indeed, it was breathed for Pūtakratu, clearly. Among the horses, in the herd.
अचेत्यग्निश्चिकितुर्हव्यवाट् स सुमद्रथः । अग्निः शुक्रेण शोचिषा बृहत्सूरो अरोचत दिवि सूर्यो अरोचत
Agni, the wise, the quick, the carrier of offerings, is well yoked to the chariot. Agni, with pure flame, shone brightly; the great sun shone in the sky, the sun shone.
युवं देवा क्रतुना पूर्व्येण युक्ता रथेन तविषं यजत्रा । आगच्छतं नासत्या शचीभिरिदं तृतीयं सवनं पिबाथः
You gods, yoked with ancient resolve and strength, come with your swift chariot, worthy of worship. Come, Nasatyas, with your powers; drink at this third pressing.
युवां देवास्त्रय एकादशासः सत्याः सत्यस्य ददृशे पुरस्तात् । अस्माकं यज्ञं सवनं जुषाणा पातं सोममश्विना दीद्यग्नी
You gods, three and eleven, true ones, have appeared before the truth. Accept our sacrifice and pressing, Ashvins; drink the Soma, shining ones.
पनाय्यं तदश्विना कृतं वां वृषभो दिवो रजसः पृथिव्याः । सहस्रं शंसा उत ये गविष्टौ सर्वाँ इत्ताँ उप याता पिबध्यै
That which is to be praised, Ashvins, you have done; the bull of heaven, of the realms of earth. A thousand praises, and those who seek the cow, all of them come here to drink.
अयं वां भागो निहितो यजत्रेमा गिरो नासत्योप यातम् । पिबतं सोमं मधुमन्तमस्मे प्र दाश्वांसमवतं शचीभिः
This portion is set for you, O worshipful ones; these songs, Nasatyas, come near. Drink the honeyed Soma for us; grant us gifts with your powers.
यमृत्विजो बहुधा कल्पयन्तः सचेतसो यज्ञमिमं वहन्ति । यो अनूचानो ब्राह्मणो युक्त आसीत्का स्वित्तत्र यजमानस्य संवित्
The priests, mindful, prepare this sacrifice in many ways and carry it. The learned Brahman, who was yoked, knows what belongs to the sacrificer there.
एक एवाग्निर्बहुधा समिद्ध एकः सूर्यो विश्वमनु प्रभूतः । एकैवोषाः सर्वमिदं वि भात्येकं वा इदं वि बभूव सर्वम्
Agni alone is kindled in many ways; the sun alone spreads everywhere. Ushas alone shines over all this; indeed, all this has arisen from the one.
ज्योतिष्मन्तं केतुमन्तं त्रिचक्रं सुखं रथं सुषदं भूरिवारम् । चित्रामघा यस्य योगेऽधिजज्ञे तं वां हुवे अति रिक्तं पिबध्यै
I call upon that radiant, bannered, three-wheeled, comfortable chariot, easy to harness and often summoned, in whose union are splendid gifts born; may you both come, surpassing the empty, to drink.
इमानि वां भागधेयानि सिस्रत इन्द्रावरुणा प्र महे सुतेषु वाम् । यज्ञेयज्ञे ह सवना भुरण्यथो यत्सुन्वते यजमानाय शिक्षथः
These shares of yours, O Indra and Varuṇa, flow forth; for your greatness at the pressings, at every sacrifice, at every pressing, you are present, and you grant to the sacrificer what he seeks.
निष्षिध्वरीरोषधीराप आस्तामिन्द्रावरुणा महिमानमाशत । या सिस्रतू रजसः पारे अध्वनो ययोः शत्रुर्नकिरादेव ओहते
The plants and waters have settled down, O Indra and Varuṇa, they have reached your greatness; those who flow at the edge of the sky, at the end of the path—no enemy, no godless one, can overtake them.
सत्यं तदिन्द्रावरुणा कृशस्य वां मध्व ऊर्मिं दुहते सप्त वाणीः । ताभिर्दाश्वांसमवतं शुभस्पती यो वामदब्धो अभि पाति चित्तिभिः
It is true, O Indra and Varuṇa: for you, the seven voices milk out the wave of sweet honey; with these, you protect the worshipper, O lords of splendor, whoever, uninjured by you, is guarded by your insights.
घृतप्रुषः सौम्या जीरदानवः सप्त स्वसारः सदन ऋतस्य । या ह वामिन्द्रावरुणा घृतश्चुतस्ताभिर्धत्तं यजमानाय शिक्षतम्
The seven sisters, ghee-shedding, gentle, ever-youthful, the abode of truth, who for you, O Indra and Varuṇa, pour out ghee—by these, grant to the sacrificer, provide for him.
अवोचाम महते सौभगाय सत्यं त्वेषाभ्यां महिमानमिन्द्रियम् । अस्मान्स्विन्द्रावरुणा घृतश्चुतस्त्रिभिः साप्तेभिरवतं शुभस्पती
We have spoken for great good fortune, the truth about your mighty, awe-inspiring power; O Indra and Varuṇa, with the three and the seven ghee-shedding ones, protect us, O lords of splendor.
