3.49.1
śaṁsā̍ ma̱hām indra̱ṁ yasmi̱n viśvā̱ ā kṛ̱ṣṭaya̍ḥ soma̱pāḥ kāma̱m avya̍n |
yaṁ su̱kratu̍ṁ dhi̱ṣaṇe̍ vibhvata̱ṣṭaṁ gha̱naṁ vṛ̱trāṇā̍ṁ ja̱naya̍nta de̱vāḥ ||
GREAT Indra will I laud, in whom all people who drink the Soma have attained their longing; Whom, passing wise, Gods, Heaven and Earth, engendered, formed by a Master's hand, to crush the Vṛitras.
3.49.2
yaṁ nu naki̱ḥ pṛta̍nāsu sva̱rāja̍ṁ dvi̱tā tara̍ti̱ nṛta̍maṁ hari̱ṣṭhām |
i̱nata̍ma̱ḥ satva̍bhi̱r yo ha̍ śū̱ṣaiḥ pṛ̍thu̱jrayā̍ aminā̱d āyu̱r dasyo̍ḥ ||
Whom, most heroic, borne by Tawny Coursers, verily none subdueth in the battle; Who, reaching far, most vigorous, hath shortened the Dasyu's life with Warriors bold of spirit.
3.49.3
sa̱hāvā̍ pṛ̱tsu ta̱raṇi̱r nārvā̍ vyāna̱śī roda̍sī me̱hanā̍vān |
bhago̱ na kā̱re havyo̍ matī̱nām pi̱teva̱ cāru̍ḥ su̱havo̍ vayo̱dhāḥ ||
Victor in fight, swift mover like a warhorse, pervading both worlds, rainer down of blessings, To he invoked in war like Bhaga, Father, as 'twere, of hymns, fair, prompt to hear, strength-giver.
3.49.4
dha̱rtā di̱vo raja̍sas pṛ̱ṣṭa ū̱rdhvo ratho̱ na vā̱yur vasu̍bhir ni̱yutvā̍n |
kṣa̱pāṁ va̱stā ja̍ni̱tā sūrya̍sya̱ vibha̍ktā bhā̱gaṁ dhi̱ṣaṇe̍va̱ vāja̍m ||
Supporting heaven, the high back of the region, his car is Vâyu with his team of Vasus. Illumining the nights, the Sun's creator, like Dhishaṇâ he deals forth strength and riches.
3.49.5
śu̱naṁ hu̍vema ma̱ghavā̍na̱m indra̍m a̱smin bhare̱ nṛta̍ma̱ṁ vāja̍sātau |
śṛ̱ṇvanta̍m u̱gram ū̱taye̍ sa̱matsu̱ ghnanta̍ṁ vṛ̱trāṇi̍ sa̱ṁjita̱ṁ dhanā̍nām ||
Call we on Maghavan, auspicious Indra, best Hero in the fight where spoil is gathered; The Strong, who listens, who gives aid in battles, who slays the Vṛitras, wins and gathers treasure.
