आ॒क॒रे वसो॑र्जरि॒ता प॑नस्यतेऽने॒हसः॒ स्तुभ॒ इन्द्रो॑ दुवस्यति । वि॒वस्व॑तः॒ सद॑न॒ आ हि पि॑प्रि॒ये स॑त्रा॒साह॑मभिमाति॒हनं॑ स्तुहि
ākare vasorjaritā panasyate'nehasaḥ stubha indro duvasyati vivasvataḥ sadana ā hi pipriye satrāsāhamabhimātihanaṃ stuhi
Indra, stirred by the hymn, strengthened the stirring song of the singer at dawn; from the shining one he drew forth the delight, he granted the feast beloved of friends, and inspired boldness in battle.
Indra, the enfeebler (of adversaries), is praised as a mine of wealth; he is propitiated by righteous commendations; he is gratified in the dwelling of the offerer of oblations; glorify Indra, the conqueror, the destroyer of his enemies.
Where battle's spoil is piled the singer winneth praise, for Indra taketh care of matchless worshippers. He in Vivasvan's dwelling findeth his delight: praise thou the ever-conquering slayer of the foe.
