तमा नू॒नं वृ॒जन॑म॒न्यथा॑ चि॒च्छूरो॒ यच्छ॑क्र॒ वि दुरो॑ गृणी॒षे । मा निर॑रं शुक्र॒दुघ॑स्य धे॒नोरा॑ङ्गिर॒सान्ब्रह्म॑णा विप्र जिन्व
tamā nūnaṃ vṛjanamanyathā cicchūro yacchakra vi duro gṛṇīṣe mā niraraṃ śukradughasya dhenorāṅgirasānbrahmaṇā vipra jinva
Truly the people stray otherwise; the wicked speech I declare hard to bear. Do not let the bright milker’s cow be yoked to the lawless Angiras and Brahman be vanquished.
Direct him who is actually our adversary into a different (course); mighty Indra, who are a hero, the destroyer (of enemies), therefore are you glorified; never may I desist from the praise of the giver of pure (gifts); satisfy, sage Indra, the aṅgirasas with food.
Lead otherwise this present foeman, Sakra! Hence art thou praised as Hero, foe destroyer Him who gives pure gifts may I praise unceasing. Sage, quicken the Angirases by devotion.
