20.21.1
न्यू षु वाचं प्र महे भरामहे गिर इन्द्राय सदने विवस्वतः ।
नू चिद्धि रत्नं ससतामिवाविदन् न दुष्टुतिर्द्रविणोदेषु शस्यते ॥ २०.२१.१ ॥
Now we bring forth the word for Indra, we offer songs at the seat of Vivasvat. As sleepers do not find the jewel, so an ill-spoken praise is not praised among the givers of wealth.
20.21.2
दुरो अश्वस्य दुर इन्द्र गोरसि दुरो यवस्य वसुन इनस्पतिः ।
शिक्षानरः प्रदिवो अकामकर्शनः सखा सखिभ्यस्तमिदं गृणीमसि ॥ २०.२१.२ ॥
O Indra, you are the gate of the horse, the gate of the cows, the gate of barley; you are lord of wealth. Teaching leader, guardian of the ancients, tormentor of the unwished-for, friend to friends: this praise of you we sing.
20.21.3
शचीव इन्द्र पुरुकृद्द्युमत्तम तवेदिदमभितश्चेकिते वसु ।
अतः संगृभ्याभिभूत आ भर मा त्वायतो जरितुः काममूनयीः ॥ २०.२१.३ ॥
O mighty Indra, doer of many deeds, most radiant! This wealth that is yours is manifest on every side. Therefore, O conqueror, gather it and bring it here; do not leave unfulfilled the desire of the singer who longs for you.
20.21.4
एभिर्द्युभिर्सुमना एभिरिन्दुभिर्निरुन्धानो अमतिं गोभिरश्विना ।
इन्द्रेण दस्युं दरयन्त इन्दुभिर्युतद्वेषसः समिषा रभेमहि ॥ २०.२१.४ ॥
With these bright days, glad in mind, with these soma-drops, releasing the lack with the cows, O Aśvins! With Indra tearing apart the dark enemy, with soma-drops dispelling hatred, we join ourselves with food.
20.21.5
समिन्द्र राया समिषा रभेमहि सं वाजेभिः पुरुश्चन्द्रैरभिद्युभिः ।
सं देव्या प्रमत्या वीरशुष्मया गोअग्रयाश्वावत्या रभेमहि ॥ २०.२१.५ ॥
O Indra, we join ourselves with wealth and with food; with many delightful, bright strengths we join ourselves. With divine wisdom, with heroic vigour, with abundance led by cows and horses, we join ourselves.
20.21.6
ते त्वा मदा अमदन् तानि वृष्ण्या ते सोमासो वृत्रहत्येषु सत्पते ।
यत्कारवे दश वृत्राण्यप्रति बर्हिष्मते नि सहस्राणि बर्हयः ॥ २०.२१.६ ॥
O lord of the good, those exhilarations delighted you, those manly deeds, and those soma-drops in the slayings of Vṛtra delighted you. When for the poet, unrivalled on the sacred grass, you cut down ten obstacles and thousands.
20.21.7
युधा युधमुप घेदेषि धृष्णुया पुरा पुरं समिदं हंस्योजसा ।
नम्या यदिन्द्र सख्या परावति निबर्हयो नमुचिं नाम मायिनम् ॥ २०.२१.७ ॥
You go boldly from battle to battle, fortress after fortress, this whole one you strike with your strength. O Indra, when with friendship from afar you bent down and cut down the deceiver named Namuci.
20.21.8
त्वं करञ्जमुत पर्णयं वधीस्तेजिष्ठयातिथिग्वस्य वर्तनी ।
त्वं शता वङ्गृदस्याभिनत्पुरोऽनानुदः परिषूता ऋजिश्वना ॥ २०.२१.८ ॥
You struck down Karañja and also Parṇaya trees, and with the most piercing force the paths of Atithigva. You split the hundred fortresses of Vaṅgṛda, unbending and encircled, together with Ṛjiśvan.
20.21.9
त्वमेतां जनराज्ञो द्विर्दशाबन्धुना सुश्रवसोपजग्मुषः ।
षष्टिं सहस्रा नवतिं नव श्रुतो नि चक्रेण रथ्या दुष्पदावृणक् ॥ २०.२१.९ ॥
You, these people-kings, kinless ones who approached with Suśravas, twenty of them; sixty thousand and ninety-nine, the famous Suśravas; with the wheel, with chariot-wheels, you encircled the ill-footed enemies.
20.21.10
त्वमाविथ सुश्रवसं तवोतिभिस्तव त्रामभिरिन्द्र तूर्वयाणम् ।
त्वमस्मै कुत्समतिथिग्वमायुं महे राज्ञे यूने अरन्धनायः ॥ २०.२१.१० ॥
You protected Suśravas with your aids; O Indra, Tūrvayāṇa with your protections. For him you gave Kutsa, Atithigva, and Āyu, to the great king and the young man as aid.
20.21.11
य उदृचीन्द्र देवगोपाः सखायस्ते शिवतमा असाम ।
त्वां स्तोषाम त्वया सुवीरा द्राघीय आयुः प्रतरं दधानाः ॥ २०.२१.११ ॥
Indra, may we be your friends, most auspicious, guarded by the gods who rise high; may we praise you, and with your help, with good heroic sons, bear long life further onward.
