यदि॑न्द्र दि॒वि पार्ये॒ यदृध॒ग्यद्वा॒ स्वे सद॑ने॒ यत्र॒ वासि॑ । अतो॑ नो य॒ज्ञमव॑से नि॒युत्वा॑न्स॒जोषाः॑ पाहि गिर्वणो म॒रुद्भिः॑
yadindra divi pārye yadṛdhagyadvā sve sadane yatra vāsi ato no yajñamavase niyutvānsajoṣāḥ pāhi girvaṇo marudbhiḥ
If Indra should dwell in the sky or in his own house where you reside, then keep safe our sacrifice; grant us fellowship with the Maruts and protect our song of praise.
Whether, Indra, you abide in the distant heaven, in any other plural ce, or in your own abode, or whersoever (you may be), from thence do you, who are propitiated by praise, putting to your steeds, protect, together with the Maruts, well plural ased, our sacrifice, for our preservation.
Mayst thou, O Indra, on the day of trial, present or absent, wheresoe'er thou dwellest, Thence, with thy team, accordant with the Maruts, Song-lover! guard our sacrifice, to help us.
