Sanskrit Original
इन्द्र॑ ज॒हि पुमां॑सं यातु॒धान॑मु॒त स्त्रियं॑ मा॒यया॒ शाश॑दानाम् । विग्री॑वासो॒ मूर॑देवा ऋदन्तु॒ मा ते दृ॑श॒न्सूर्य॑मु॒च्चर॑न्तम्
indra jahi pumāṃsaṃ yātudhānamuta striyaṃ māyayā śāśadānām vigrīvāso mūradevā ṛdantu mā te dṛśansūryamuccarantam
Indra, slay the man and send ruin upon the foe; do not, by illusion, let the woman of the malicious remain. Let the bold gods rend the necks; may they not behold the sun and cry aloud.
Slay, Indra, the Yātudhāna, whether in the form of a man, or of a woman doing mischief by herdeceptions; may those who sport in murder perish dissipated; let them not behold the rising sun.
Slay the male demon, Indra! slay the female, joying and triumphing in arts of magic. Let the fools' gods with bent necks fall and perish, and see no more the Sun when he arises.
