Day by day you, famed of might, have shone with martial vigour; your powers were not diminished. The heavens did not become less for you, nor did other realms; graceful were your established seats.

Indra, from whom many are born; you who is vigorous have slain Ahi, enveloping the slumbering water and confiding in his prowess; yet the heaven apprehended not your greatness as you remained concealing the earth by on eof your flames.

Thou, puissant God, more mighty, slewest. Ahi showing his strength when couched around the waters. The heaven itself attained not to thy greatness when with one hip of thine the earth was shadowed.
