त्वं धुनि॑रिन्द्र॒ धुनि॑मतीरृ॒णोर॒पः सी॒रा न स्रव॑न्तीः । प्र यत्स॑मु॒द्रमति॑ शूर॒ पर्षि॑ पा॒रया॑ तु॒र्वशं॒ यदुं॑ स्व॒स्ति
tvaṃ dhunirindra dhunimatīrṛṇorapaḥ sīrā na sravantīḥ pra yatsamudramati śūra parṣi pārayā turvaśaṃ yaduṃ svasti
You, Indra, are the threshing‑stone, the mighty threshing‑stone, the rain that does not flow away; you who stirred up the ocean, heroic champion, moving across the ford — may that which is auspicious be for us.
You, Indra, are the terrifier (of your foes); you have made the trembling waters overspread (the earth) like flowing rivers; but, hero, when you fill the ocean you have protected in their well-being Turvaśa and Yadu.
A Stormer thou hast made the stormy waters flow down, O Indra, like the running rivers. When o'er the flood thou broughtest them, O Hero, thou keptest Turvaga and Yadu safely.
