आ तत्त॑ इन्द्रा॒यवः॑ पनन्ता॒भि य ऊ॒र्वं गोम॑न्तं॒ तितृ॑त्सान् । स॒कृ॒त्स्वं१॒॑ ये पु॑रुपु॒त्रां म॒हीं स॒हस्र॑धारां बृह॒तीं दुदु॑क्षन्
ā tatta indrāyavaḥ panantābhi ya ūrvaṃ gomantaṃ titṛtsān sakṛtsvaṃ1 ye puruputrāṃ mahīṃ sahasradhārāṃ bṛhatīṃ dudukṣan
So came the Indra-bearing streams, lading the broad expanse, making the uplifted kine go. Often they, who filled the thousand-fold earth with sons, pushed forth their home.
Your men praised (you) then, Indra, (those) who wished to break into the vast (stall) full of cattle; whomilked the extensive once-genitive rating earth, mother of many children, the showerer of thousands (of blessings).
Those living men extolled thy deed, O Indra, those who would fain burst through the stall of cattle, Fain to milk her who bare but once, great, lofty, whose Sons are many and her streams past number.
