1. To you I come with this mine adoration,
and with a hymn I crave the Strong Ones' favour
A hymn that truly makes you joyful, Maruts. Suppress your
anger and unyoke your horses.
2 Maruts, to you this laud with prayer and
worship, formed in the mind and heart, ye Gods, is offered.
Come ye to us, rejoicing in your spirit, for ye are they who
make our prayer effective.
3 The Maruts, praised by us, shall show us
favour; Maghavan, lauded, shall be most propitious.
Maruts,, may all our days that are to follow be very
pleasant, lovely and triumphant.
4 I fled in terrror from this mighty Indra,
my body trembling in alarm, O Maruts.
Oblations meant for you had been made ready; these have we
set aside: for this forgive us.
5 By whom the Manas recognize the
day-springs, by whose strength at the dawn of endless mornings,
Give us, thou Mighty, glory with Maruts. fierce with the
fierce, the Strong who givest triumph.
6 Do thou, O Indra, guard the conquering
Heroes, and rid thee of thy wrath against the Maruts,
With them, the wise, victorious and bestowing. May we find
strengthening food in full abundance.
