O Indra, bring great strength to us, bring valour, 5atakratu, thou most active, bring
A hero conquering in war!

For, gracious Satakratu, thou hast ever been a mother and a sire to us,
So now for bliss we pray to thee.

To thee, strong! much-invoked! who showest forth thy strength, made very mighty! do I speak:
So grant thou us heroic power!

Stone-Darting Indra, wonderous God, what wealth thou hast not given me here,
That bounty, treasure-finder! bring, filling full both thy hands, to us!

Bring what thou deemest worth the wish, O Indra that which is in heavem!
So may we know thee as thou art a giver boundless in thy gifts!

Thy lofty spirit famed in all the regions as appeasable,--
With this thou rendest even things firm, Stone-darter! so to win thee strength.
