6.26.1
श्रु॒धी न॑ इन्द्र॒ ह्वया॑मसि त्वा म॒हो वाज॑स्य सा॒तौ वा॑वृषा॒णाः ।
सं यद्विशोऽय॑न्त॒ शूर॑सातौ उ॒ग्रं नोऽवः॒ पार्ये॒ अह॑न्दाः ॥
Hear us, Indra; we call you for great strength, you who are eager. When the peoples gathered in the contest of heroes, you gave us fierce protection on the final day.
6.26.2
त्वां वा॒जी ह॑वते वाजिने॒यो म॒हो वाज॑स्य॒ गध्य॑स्य सा॒तौ ।
त्वां वृ॒त्रेष्वि॑न्द्र॒ सत्प॑तिं॒ तरु॑त्रं॒ त्वां च॑ष्टे मुष्टि॒हा गोषु॒ युध्य॑न् ॥
The mighty Vājineya calls you, for great strength in the contest of Gādhya. Indra, you who are lord of the good and protector in battles; the one who strikes with his fist sees you fighting for the cattle.
6.26.3
त्वं क॒विं चो॑दयो॒ऽर्कसा॑तौ॒ त्वं कुत्सा॑य॒ शुष्णं॑ दा॒शुषे॑ वर्क् ।
त्वं शिरो॑ अम॒र्मणः॒ परा॑हन्नतिथि॒ग्वाय॒ शंस्यं॑ करि॒ष्यन् ॥
You stirred the seer in the contest of the arka; for Kutsa and for the giver you struck down Śuṣṇa. From afar you split the head of the unyielding one; you, about to make the hymn of praise for Atithigva.
6.26.4
त्वं रथं॒ प्र भ॑रो यो॒धमृ॒ष्वमावो॒ युध्य॑न्तं वृष॒भं दश॑द्युम् ।
त्वं तुग्रं॑ वेत॒सवे॒ सचा॑ह॒न्त्वं तुजिं॑ गृ॒णन्त॑मिन्द्र तूतोः ॥
You drove the chariot forward, the warrior and the vigorous one; you protected the fighting bull Dashadyu. For Vetasu you struck down the fierce one together; O Indra, you protected Tuji who sings praise.
6.26.5
त्वं तदु॒क्थमि॑न्द्र ब॒र्हणा॑ कः॒ प्र यच्छ॒ता स॒हस्रा॑ शूर॒ दर्षि॑ ।
अव॑ गि॒रेर्दासं॒ शम्ब॑रं ह॒न्प्रावो॒ दिवो॑दासं चि॒त्राभि॑रू॒ती ॥
You made that hymn with the kuśa grass, O Indra; when you shone among hundreds and thousands, O hero. From the mountain you struck down the servant Śambara below; you protected Divodāsa with bright protections.
6.26.6
त्वं श्र॒द्धाभि॑र्मन्दसा॒नः सोमै॑र्द॒भीत॑ये॒ चुमु॑रिमिन्द्र सिष्वप् ।
त्वं र॒जिं पिठी॑नसे दश॒स्यन्ष॒ष्टिं स॒हस्रा॒ शच्या॒ सचा॑हन् ॥
You, delighted with devotions and the Soma juices, O Indra, lulled Cumuri to sleep for the harmless one. You, the giver, for Pīṭhīnasa, struck down Raji; sixty thousand together with strength.
6.26.7
अ॒हं च॒न तत्सू॒रिभि॑रानश्यां॒ तव॒ ज्याय॑ इन्द्र सु॒म्नमोजः॑ ।
त्वया॒ यत्स्तव॑न्ते सधवीर वी॒रास्त्रि॒वरू॑थेन॒ नहु॑षा शविष्ठ ॥
O Indra, may I too attain that bounty and strength which is won by the seers, through your great favor. O you with heroes, O most mighty one, as the heroes praise you, may I attain it with the threefold protection, along with the Nahuṣas.
6.26.8
व॒यं ते॑ अ॒स्यामि॑न्द्र द्यु॒म्नहू॑तौ॒ सखा॑यः स्याम महिन॒ प्रेष्ठाः॑ ।
प्रात॑र्दनिः क्षत्र॒श्रीर॑स्तु॒ श्रेष्ठो॑ घ॒ने वृ॒त्राणां॑ स॒नये॒ धना॑नाम् ॥
O Indra, in this bright invocation may we be your friends, O great one, most dear to you. May the glory of kingship that rises with the dawn be the best; and may we excel in gaining riches in the clash of battle over the Vṛtras (obstructers).
