May our herds, O herdsman, approach us; let the riches come to us. You are the strong bull, the true protector—wise Indra, bring wealth to us, O bounteous one.
Indra, lord of cattle, (divide the clouds and send us) rain, whence nutritious food may come to us; showerer (of benefits), you are spread through the sky, and powerful through truth; Maghavan, consider yourself as our protector.
Lord of the kine, burst the kine's stable open: cows shall be ours, and strength that wins the booty. Hero, whose might is true, thy home is heaven: to us, O Maghavan, grant gifts of cattle.
