The great field is the mighty dwelling; the learned churned the lunar measure with comrades. Indra, granting men offspring, gave sight; with the sun’s aid they sang forth Agni to be invoked.
Wide fields, vast treasure, (spacious) pastures has the much-knowing (Indra) bestowed upon his friends; the radiant Indra with the leaders (of rites, the Maruts) genitive rated the sun, the dawn, the earth and fire.
He, having found great, splendid, rich dominion, sent life and motion to his friends and lovers. Indra who shone together with the Heroes begot the song, the fire, and Sun and Morning.
