अ॒द्या चि॒न्नू चि॒त्तदपो॑ न॒दीनां॒ यदा॑भ्यो॒ अर॑दो गा॒तुमि॑न्द्र । नि पर्व॑ता अद्म॒सदो॒ न से॑दु॒स्त्वया॑ दृ॒ळ्हानि॑ सुक्रतो॒ रजां॑सि
adyā cinnū cittadapo nadīnāṃ yadābhyo arado gātumindra ni parvatā admasado na sedustvayā dṛḷhāni sukrato rajāṃsi
Today, Indra cut through the fetters of minds and led the river-bonds; the mountains did not block you, O maker of good, you pierced the hardened barriers.
At present, verily as of old, that act, (the liberation) of the rivers, is effective; whereby you have directed them on their course; the mountains have settled (at your command) like (men) seated at their meals; doer of great deeds, by you have the worlds been rendered stationary.
E'en now endures thine exploit of the Rivers, when, Indra, for their floods thou clavest passage. Like men who sit at meat the mountains settled: by thee, Most Wise! the regions were made steadfast.
