stavā nu ta indra pūrvyā mahānyuta stavāma nūtanā kṛtāni stavā vajraṃ bāhvoruśantaṃ stavā harī sūryasya ketū
Now sing to Indra the ancient great hymn and the newly made praises. Sing the bolt, the arm-bearing power, the harbinger of the radiant sun.
We glorify, Indra, your mighty (deeds) of old; we glorify your (more) recent exploits; we praise the thunderbolt shining in your arms, and we celebrate the horses, the signs of (Indra as) the sun.
Indra, we laud thy great deeds wrought aforetime, we laud thine exploits later of achievement; We laud the bolt that in thine arms lies eager; we laud thy two Bay Steeds, heralds of Surya.
