आ द्वि॒बर्हा॑ अमि॒नो या॒त्विन्द्रो॒ वृषा॒ हरि॑भ्यां॒ परि॑षिक्त॒मन्धः॑ । गव्या सु॒तस्य॒ प्रभृ॑तस्य॒ मध्वः॑ स॒त्रा खेदा॑मरुश॒हा वृ॑षस्व
ā dvibarhā amino yātvindro vṛṣā haribhyāṃ pariṣiktamandhaḥ gavyā sutasya prabhṛtasya madhvaḥ satrā khedāmaruśahā vṛṣasva
Bring two-armed cattle here, Indra, and the strong bulls purified for the offering. For the milker of the well-fed kine, honeyed and stout, make the bulls swift.
May Indra, who deserves the twofold adoration, (of praise and prayer), who goes everywhere, theshowerer of benefits, come to the offered sacrificial food with his two bay horses; O slayer of enemies,(exhilarated) at our sacrifice (by drinking) of the Soma effused upon the cow-hide and poured (into the cups),rush like a bull upon the dispirited (foes).
Let Indra come, impetuous, doubly mighty, to the poured juice, the Bull, with two Bay Coursers. With juices pressed in milk, with meath presented, glut evermore thy bolt, O Foe-destroyer.
