1. GRACIOUSLY listen to our songs,
Maghavan, be not negligent.
As thou hast made us full of joy and lettest us solicit
thee, now, Indra, yoke thy two Bay Steeds.
2 Well have they eaten and rejoiced; the
friends have risen and passed away.
The sages luminous in themselves have. praised thee with
their latest hymn. Now, Indra, yoke thy two Bay Steeds.
3 Maghavan, we will reverence thee who art
so fair to look upon.
Thus praised, according to our wish come now with richly
laden car. Now, Indra, yoke thy two Bay Steeds.
4 He will in very truth ascend the powerful
car that finds the kine,
Who thinks upon the well-filled bowl, the Tawny Coursers'
harnesser. Now, Indra, yoke thy two Bay Steeds.
5 Let, Lord of Hundred Powers, thy Steeds
be harnessed on the right and left.
Therewith in rapture of the juice, draw near to thy beloved
Spouse. Now, Indra, yoke thy two Bay Steeds.
6 With holy prayer I yoke thy long-maned
pair of Bays: come hitherward; thou holdest them in both thy hands.
The stirring draughts of juice outpoured have made thee
glad: thou, Thunderer, hast rejoiced with Pusan and thy Spouse.
