8,81 Indra 
8.LXX Indra 
ā́ tū́ na indra kṣumántaṃ citráṃ grābháṃ sáṃ gr̥bhāya |
mahāhastī́ dákṣiṇena || 
1 INDRA, God of the mighty arm, gather for us with thy right hand Manifold and nutritious spoil. 
vidmā́ hí tvā tuvikūrmíṃ tuvídeṣṇaṃ tuvī́magham |
tuvimātrám ávobhiḥ || 
2 We know thee mighty in thy deeds, of mighty bounty, mighty wealth, Mighty in measure, prompt to aid. 
nahí tvā śūra devā́ ná mártāso dítsantam |
bhīmáṃ ná gā́ṃ vāráyante || 
3 Hero, when thou art fain to give, neither may Gods nor mortal men Restrain thee like a fearful Bull. 
éto nu índraṃ stávāma íśānaṃ vásvaḥ svarā́jam |
ná rā́dhasā mardhiṣan naḥ || 
4 Come, let us glorify Indra, Lord supreme of wealth, Self-ruling King: In bounty may he harm us not. 
prá stoṣad úpa gāsiṣac chrávat sā́ma gīyámānam |
abhí rā́dhasā jugurat || 
5 Let prelude sound and following chant so let him hear the Sāman sung, And with his bounty answer us. 
ā́ no bhara dákṣiṇena abhí savyéna prá mr̥śa |
índra mā́ no vásor nír bhāk || 
6 O Indra, with thy right hand bring, and with thy left remember us. Let us not lose our share of wealth. 
úpa kramasva ā́ bhara dhr̥ṣatā́ dhr̥ṣṇo jánānām |
ádāśūṣṭarasya védaḥ || 
7 Come nigh, O Bold One, boldly bring hither the riches of the churl Who giveth least of all the folk. 
índra yá u nú te ásti vā́jo víprebhiḥ sánitvaḥ |
asmā́bhiḥ sú táṃ sanuhi || 
8 Indra, the booty which thou hast with holy singers to receive, Even that booty win with us. 
sadyojúvas te vā́jā asmábhyaṃ viśváścandrāḥ |
váśaiś ca makṣū́ jarante || 
9 Indra, thy swiftly-coming spoil, the booty which rejoices all, Sounds quick in concert with our hopes.
