This wise Indu (moon/soma) has endowed us with speech; the sacrificial mind strengthened by thought. He who put the womb in the seat of the house sent forth the cows, barley and rice to the pasture.

May this Indu, praised of many, knowing those who desire to slay us, slay them with united mind; who being in the dwelling of the lord (Agni) deposits a germ (in the herds) and hastens to (our) milk-giving herd of cattle.

May that much-lauded Indu, with a heart inclined to us, well-knowing, fight against our enemies. He who hath brought the germ beside the Strong One's seat moves onward to the widely-opcned stall of kine.
