1

STONE-DARTER Indra. Wondrous One, what wealth is richly given from thee, That bounty, Treasure-Finder! bring filling both thy hands, to us.

2

Bring what thou deemest worth the wish, O Indra, that which is in heaven. So may we know thee as thou art, boundless in thy munificence.

3

Thy lofty spirit, far-renowned as eager to give and quick to win— With this thou rendest even the firm, Stone-Darter! so to gain thee strength.

4

Singers with many songs have made Indra propitious to their fame, Him who is King of human kind, most liberal of your wealthy ones.

5

To him, to Indra must be sung the poet’s word, the hymn of praise. To him, accepter of the prayer, the Atris raise their songs on high, the Atris beautify their songs.
