Drink Soma, O twin‑edged one, pour forth the stream, O Indra, praise the great herd of kine; you who with bold might, wielder of the thunderbolt, smote all hostile foes and crushed the mighty fiends with your shafts.
Fierce Indra, glorified by us, drink of the Soma, (animated) by which you have discovered the vast herd of cattle (stolen by Paṇis), and, overcomer of enemies, wielder of the thunderbolt, you have slain, by your strength all opposing foes.
DRINK Soma, Mighty One, for which, when lauded, thou breakest through the cattle-stall, O Indra; Thou who, O Bold One, armed with thunder smotest Vrtra with might, and every hostile being.
