वि त्वदापो॒ न पर्व॑तस्य पृ॒ष्ठादु॒क्थेभि॑रिन्द्रानयन्त य॒ज्ञैः । तं त्वा॒भिः सु॑ष्टु॒तिभि॑र्वा॒जय॑न्त आ॒जिं न ज॑ग्मुर्गिर्वाहो॒ अश्वाः॑
vi tvadāpo na parvatasya pṛṣṭhādukthebhirindrānayanta yajñaiḥ taṃ tvābhiḥ suṣṭutibhirvājayanta ājiṃ na jagmurgirvāho aśvāḥ
Waters of the mountain did not bring you forth; with hymns they led Indra to the sacrifices. By these laudations they yoked you, the swift steeds moved, the coursers ran.
By praises and by sacrifices, Indra, (men) bring down (what they desire) from you, as the waters (descend) from the top of the mountain; desirous of food, they approach you, who are accessible to praise, with these their eulogies, as (eagerly as) coursers rush to battle.
By song and sacrifice men brought the waters from thee, as from a mountain's ridge, O Indra. Urging thy might, with these fair lauds they seek thee, O theme of song, as horses rush tobattle.
