1.17.1

इन्द्रा॒वरु॑णयोर॒हं स॒म्राजो॒रव॒ आ वृ॑णे ।
ता नो॑ मृळात ई॒दृशे॑ ॥

I call upon the help of Indra and Varuṇa, the two sovereign rulers. May those two be gracious to us in such a way.

गन्ता॑रा॒ हि स्थोऽव॑से॒ हवं॒ विप्र॑स्य॒ माव॑तः ।
ध॒र्तारा॑ चर्षणी॒नाम् ॥

Indeed you two are the ones who come to help. Hear the call of a seer such as I. You two are the sustainers of the people.

अ॒नु॒का॒मं त॑र्पयेथा॒मिन्द्रा॑वरुण रा॒य आ ।
ता वां॒ नेदि॑ष्ठमीमहे ॥

O Indra and Varuṇa, satisfy us with wealth according to our desire. Those two we call to be nearest to us.

यु॒वाकु॒ हि शची॑नां यु॒वाकु॑ सुमती॒नाम् ।
भू॒याम॑ वाज॒दाव्ना॑म् ॥

You two indeed are the lords of strengths; you two are the lords of good insights. May we be among the bestowers of gifts.

इन्द्रः॑ सहस्र॒दाव्नां॒ वरु॑णः॒ शंस्या॑नाम् ।
क्रतु॑र्भवत्यु॒क्थ्यः॑ ॥

Indra is the lord of those who give a thousand; Varuṇa is among those worthy of praise in songs. Their will becomes worthy of hymns.

तयो॒रिदव॑सा व॒यं स॒नेम॒ नि च॑ धीमहि ।
स्यादु॒त प्र॒रेच॑नम् ॥

By the protection of those two indeed may we win and hold fast. May that be our reward of praise.

इन्द्रा॑वरुण वाम॒हं हु॒वे चि॒त्राय॒ राध॑से ।
अ॒स्मान्त्सु जि॒ग्युष॑स्कृतम् ॥

O Indra and Varuṇa, I call on you two for bright wealth; make us, the victorious ones, well favored.

इन्द्रा॑वरुण॒ नू नु वां॒ सिषा॑सन्तीषु धी॒ष्वा ।
अ॒स्मभ्यं॒ शर्म॑ यच्छतम् ॥

O Indra and Varuṇa, come now to my prayers that long for you; grant us shelter.

प्र वा॑मश्नोतु सुष्टु॒तिरिन्द्रा॑वरुण॒ यां हु॒वे ।
यामृ॒धाथे॑ स॒धस्तु॑तिम् ॥

May the well-sung praise with which I call you reach you, O Indra and Varuṇa; may you two prosper through the praise that shares your seat.
