विश्व॑स्मात्सीमध॒माँ इ॑न्द्र॒ दस्यू॒न्विशो॒ दासी॑रकृणोरप्रश॒स्ताः । अबा॑धेथा॒ममृ॑णतं॒ नि शत्रू॒नवि॑न्देथा॒मप॑चितिं॒ वध॑त्रैः

From all sides Indra made the ten thousands of Dasyus shrink and heaped disgrace on those without praise. He laid low the deadly ones, found their foes, and with slaying strokes cut off their hostile companies.

Such is the steadfast truth of the bountiful ones: you, Indra, Soma and the steeds—these cows—stand firm. Even what was laid down as great offerings was taken; they fashioned hymns and gave threefold gifts with joyful heart.
