4.20.1

आ न॒ इन्द्रो॑ दू॒रादा न॑ आ॒साद॑भिष्टि॒कृदव॑से यासदु॒ग्रः ।
ओजि॑ष्ठेभिर्नृ॒पति॒र्वज्र॑बाहुः सं॒गे स॒मत्सु॑ तु॒र्वणिः॑ पृत॒न्यून् ॥

May Indra come to our protection, from far and from near, the fierce lord of men with the thunderbolt in his arm, swift to conquer in encounters and contests, and advance against the hostile armies.

4.20.2

आ न॒ इन्द्रो॒ हरि॑भिर्या॒त्वच्छा॑र्वाची॒नोऽव॑से॒ राध॑से च ।
तिष्ठा॑ति व॒ज्री म॒घवा॑ विर॒प्शीमं य॒ज्ञमनु॑ नो॒ वाज॑सातौ ॥

May Indra come toward us with his tawny steeds, turned toward us for protection and for gifts of wealth. May the thunderbolt-bearing, bountiful Indra stand also by this sacrifice, and be with us in the contest for spoils.

4.20.3

इ॒मं य॒ज्ञं त्वम॒स्माक॑मिन्द्र पु॒रो दध॑त्सनिष्यसि॒ क्रतुं॑ नः ।
श्व॒घ्नीव॑ वज्रिन्त्स॒नये॒ धना॑नां॒ त्वया॑ व॒यम॒र्य आ॒जिं ज॑येम ॥

Indra, setting this sacrifice before us, you will strengthen our resolve. Thunderbolt-wielder, as a hunter overcomes the dog, may we win the race for riches with you.

4.20.4

उ॒शन्नु॒ षु णः॑ सु॒मना॑ उपा॒के सोम॑स्य॒ नु सुषु॑तस्य स्वधावः ।
पा इ॑न्द्र॒ प्रति॑भृतस्य॒ मध्वः॒ समन्ध॑सा ममदः पृ॒ष्ठ्ये॑न ॥

Shining, come near to us with a kindly mind. O self-sustaining Indra, drink of the well-pressed soma. Indra, drink of the mead that has been brought forward, and rejoice together with the nourishment and the spotted gift.

4.20.5

वि यो र॑र॒प्श ऋषि॑भि॒र्नवे॑भिर्वृ॒क्षो न प॒क्वः सृण्यो॒ न जेता॑ ।
मर्यो॒ न योषा॑म॒भि मन्य॑मा॒नोऽछा॑ विवक्मि पुरुहू॒तमिन्द्र॑म् ॥

Indra, who has shown himself by the new seers like a ripe tree, like a victor hero, I, thinking of him as a man thinks of a woman, call near to me Indra, much-invoked.

4.20.6

गि॒रिर्न यः स्वत॑वाँ ऋ॒ष्व इन्द्रः॑ स॒नादे॒व सह॑से जा॒त उ॒ग्रः ।
आद॑र्ता व्र॒जं* स्थवि॑रं॒ न भी॒म उ॒द्नेव॒ कोशं॒ वसु॑ना॒ न्यृ॑ष्टम् ॥

Indra, mighty and bold as a mountain with his own strength, born fierce from the beginning for might, breaks open the firm and fearsome enclosure, and opens the treasure-vessel full of wealth, as milk flows from the udder.

4.20.7

न यस्य॑ व॒र्ता ज॒नुषा॒ न्वस्ति॒ न राध॑स आमरी॒ता म॒घस्य॑ ।
उ॒द्वा॒वृ॒षा॒णस्त॑विषीव उग्रा॒स्मभ्यं॑ दद्धि पुरुहूत रा॒यः ॥

There is no one who by birth is the giver, nor is there one who withholds the wealth. O mighty, fierce Indra, O much-invoked one, give riches to us.

ईक्षे॑ रा॒यः क्षय॑स्य चर्षणी॒नामु॒त व्र॒जम॑पव॒र्तासि॒ गोना॑म् ।
शि॒क्षा॒न॒रः स॑मि॒थेषु॑ प्र॒हावा॒न्वस्वो॑ रा॒शिम॑भिने॒तासि॒ भूरि॑म् ॥

I seek riches and the splendor of movable wealth. You are the one who drives back the cattle-pen; in contests you are the guide and the forward attacker, and you are the one who brings a vast heap of goods.

4.20.9

कया॒ तच्छृ॑ण्वे॒ शच्या॒ शचि॑ष्ठो॒ यया॑ कृ॒णोति॒ मुहु॒ का चि॑दृ॒ष्वः ।
पु॒रु दा॒शुषे॒ विच॑यिष्ठो॒ अंहोऽथा॑ दधाति॒ द्रवि॑णं जरि॒त्रे ॥

By what power is that call heard? By what power does the most skillful one act again and again, O seer? Among many, he discerns the fault of the giver most clearly; then he bestows riches on the singer.

4.20.10

मा नो॑ मर्धी॒रा भ॑रा द॒द्धि तन्नः॒ प्र दा॒शुषे॒ दात॑वे॒ भूरि॒ यत्ते॑ ।
नव्ये॑ दे॒ष्णे श॒स्ते अ॒स्मिन्त॑ उ॒क्थे प्र ब्र॑वाम व॒यमि॑न्द्र स्तु॒वन्तः॑ ॥

Indra, do not harm us; give the abundance that is yours to the giver and to us. In this new, praised hymn, let us speak, praising you.

4.20.11

नू ष्टु॒त इ॑न्द्र॒ नू गृ॑णा॒न इषं॑ जरि॒त्रे न॒द्यो॑ न पी॑पेः ।
अका॑रि ते हरिवो॒ ब्रह्म॒ नव्यं॑ धि॒या स्या॑म र॒थ्यः॑ सदा॒साः ॥

Indra, now praised and extolled, fill the singer with nourishment as rivers fill. O possessor of tawny steeds, this new sacred formula has been made for you; with thought, may we ever be charioteers and companions of the lord of plenty.
