20.37.1
यस्तिग्मशृङ्गो वृषभो न भीमः एकः कृष्टीश्च्यवयति प्र विश्वाः ।
यः शश्वतो अदाशुषो गयस्य प्रयन्तासि सुष्वितराय वेदः ॥ २०.३७.१ ॥
Like a fearsome bull with sharp horns, he alone shakes and drives out all peoples. You are the one who from of old brings forth the wealth of the ungenerous homestead for the sacrificer who presses the soma.
20.37.2
त्वं ह त्यदिन्द्र कुत्समावः शुश्रूषमाणस्तन्वा समर्ये ।
दासं यच्शुष्णं कुयवं न्यस्मा अरन्धय आर्जुनेयाय शिक्षन् ॥ २०.३७.२ ॥
Indra, it was you who, serving with your body in battle, protected Kutsa. Wishing to help the son of Arjuna, you subdued for him the Śuṣṇa and Kuyava, that enemy.
20.37.3
त्वं धृष्णो धृषता वीतहव्यं प्रावो विश्वाभिरूतिभिः सुदासम् ।
प्र पौरुकुत्सिं त्रसदस्युमावः क्षेत्रसाता वृत्रहत्येषु पूरुम् ॥ २०.३७.३ ॥
Bold one, with your boldness and all your protections you guarded Vītahavya and Sudās. You protected Trasadasyu, son of Purukutsa, and in the battles of slaying Vṛtra, for the winning of land, you protected Pūru.
20.37.4
त्वं नृभिर्नृमणो देववीतौ भूरीणि वृत्रा हर्यश्व हंसि ।
त्वं नि दस्युं चुमुरिं धुनिं चास्वापयो दभीतये सुहन्तु ॥ २०.३७.४ ॥
Delighter of men, with men at the feast of the gods you slay many foes, O lord of tawny horses. You put to sleep the dasyus Cumuri and Dhuni, and for the protection of Dabhīti you slew them with ease.
20.37.5
तव च्यौत्नानि वज्रहस्त तानि नव यत्पुरो नवतिं च सद्यः ।
निवेशने शततमाविवेषीरहं च वृत्रं नमुचिमुताहन् ॥ २०.३७.५ ॥
O wielder of the thunderbolt, these are your exploits: when you at once broke the ninety-nine fortresses and entered the hundredth stronghold. And I slew Vṛtra and also Namuci.
20.37.6
सना ता त इन्द्र भोजनानि रातहव्याय दाशुषे सुदासे ।
वृष्णे ते हरी वृषणा युनज्मि व्यन्तु ब्रह्माणि पुरुशाक वाजम् ॥ २०.३७.६ ॥
O Indra, your enjoyments are from of old, for the oblation-giving donor, for Sudās. I yoke your two virile bay horses; may the prayers and the strength reach you, O much-desired one.
20.37.7
मा ते अस्यां सहसावन् परिष्टावघाय भूम हरिवः परादौ ।
त्रायस्व नोऽवृकेभिर्वरूथैस्तव प्रियासः सूरिषु स्याम ॥ २०.३७.७ ॥
O mighty one, may we not fall into harm in this state, O lord of bay horses, do not abandon us in the moment of defeat. Protect us with harmless shelters; may we be among the wise as your beloved.
20.37.8
प्रियास इत्ते मघवन्न् अभिष्टौ नरो मदेम शरणे सखायः ।
नि तुर्वशं नि याद्वं शिशीह्यतिथिग्वाय शंस्यं करिष्यन् ॥ २०.३७.८ ॥
O bountiful one, may we, your dear men, rejoice as friends in your call, in your shelter. Bring down Turvaśa and Yadu, doing what is worthy of praise for Atithigva.
20.37.9
सद्यश्चिन् नु ते मघवन्न् अभिष्टौ नरः शंसन्त्युक्थशास उक्था ।
ये ते हवेभिर्वि पणींरदाशन्न् अस्मान् वृणीष्व युज्याय तस्मै ॥ २०.३७.९ ॥
O bountiful one, at once in your call men praise you, reciters of hymns recite the hymns. Those who by your calls have scattered the Paṇis — choose us for that companionship.
20.37.10
एते स्तोमा नरां नृतम तुभ्यमस्मद्र्यञ्चो ददतो मघानि ।
तेषामिन्द्र वृत्रहत्ये शिवो भूः सखा च शूरोऽविता च नृणाम् ॥ २०.३७.१० ॥
O most manly one, these praises of men are for you — you who turn toward us and give riches. O Indra, be auspicious to them in the battle against Vṛtra; be friend, hero, and protector of men.
20.37.11
नू इन्द्र शूर स्तवमान ऊती ब्रह्मजूतस्तन्वा वावृधस्व ।
उप नो वाजान् मिमीह्युप स्तीन् यूयं पात स्वस्तिभिः सदा नः ॥ २०.३७.११ ॥
Now, O Indra, hero, being praised, for help, impelled by the sacred word, grow strong in your body. Measure out to us spoils and also herds; may you always protect us with blessings of well-being.
