ए॒वा हि त्वामृ॑तु॒था या॒तय॑न्तं म॒घा विप्रे॑भ्यो॒ दद॑तं शृ॒णोमि॑ । किं ते॑ ब्र॒ह्माणो॑ गृहते॒ सखा॑यो॒ ये त्वा॒या नि॑द॒धुः काम॑मिन्द्र
evā hi tvāmṛtuthā yātayantaṃ maghā viprebhyo dadataṃ śaṛṇomi kiṃ te brahmāṇo gṛhate sakhāyo ye tvāyā nidadhuḥ kāmamindra
Indeed I have heard of your deaths and of those who bestowed gifts to the priests. What do the high gods gain, friends, who set you forth desiring Indra?
I hear of you influencing (creatures) according to the season, and giving riches to the pious; but what do your devoted friends (obtain), who have entrusted their desires, Indra, to you.
So, too, I hear of thee as in due season urging to action and enriching singers. What have thy friends received from thee, the Brahmans who, faithful, rest their hopes on thee, O Indra?
