Bibliotheca Polyglotta

1 WHEN we have pressed the juice we laud thee, Indra, and when, Most Valorous we have won the booty. Bring us prosperity, as each desires it under thine own protection may we conquer.

r̥ṣvás tuvám indara+ śūra jātó dā́sīr víśaḥ · sū́riyeṇa sahyāḥ |
gúhā hitáṃ gúhiyaṃ gūḷhám apsú bibhr̥mási prasrávaṇe ná sómam ||

2 Sublime from birth, mayst thou O Indra, Hero, with Sūrya overcome the Dāsa races. As by a fountain's side, we bring the Soma that lay concealed, close-hidden in the waters.

aryó vā gíro abhí arca vidvā́n ŕ̥ṣīṇāṃ vípraḥ sumatíṃ cakānáḥ |
té siyāma yé raṇáyanta sómair enā́ utá túbhya° rathoḷha bhakṣaíḥ ||

3 Answer the votary's hymns, for these thou knowest, craving the Ṛṣis’ prayer, thyself a Singer May we be they who take delight in Somas: these with sweet food for thee, O Chariot-rider.

imā́ bráhma indara+ túbhya° śaṃsi dã́ nŕ̥bhyo nr̥̄ṇã́ṃ+ śūra śávaḥ |
tébhir bhava sákratur yéṣu cākánn utá trāyasva gr̥ṇatá utá stī́n ||

4 These holy prayers, O Indra, have I sung thee: grant to the men the strength of men, thou Hero. Be of one mind with those in whom thou joyest: keep thou the singers safe and their companions.

śrudhī́ hávam indara+ śūra pŕ̥thyā utá stavase veniyásya arkaíḥ |
ā́ yás te yóniṃ ghr̥távantam ásvār ūrmír ná nímnaír dravayanta vákvāḥ ||

5 Listen to Pṛthi's call, heroic Indra, and be thou lauded by the hymns of Venya, Him who hath sung thee to thine oil-rich dwelling, whose rolling songs have sped thee like a torrent.
