As cows low to their calves in stalls, so with our songs we glorify<br /> This Indra, even your Wondrous God who checks attack, who joys in the delicious juice.<br /> 2. Celestial, bounteous Giver, girt about with might, rich, mountain-like, in precious things,<br /> Him swift we seek. for foodful booty rich in kine, brought hundredfold and thousandfold.<br /> 3. Indra, the strong and lofty hills are powerless to bar thy way.<br /> None stay that act of thine when thou wouldst fain give wealth to one like me who sings thy praise.<br /> 4. A Warrior thou by strength, wisdom, and wondrous deed, in might excellest all that is.<br /> Hither may this our hymn attract thee to our help, the hymn which Gotamas have made.<br /> 5. For in thy might thou stretchest out beyond the boundaries of heaven.<br /> The earthly region, Indra, comprehends thee not. After thy Godhead hast thou waxed.<br /> 6. When, Maghavan, thou honourest the worshipper, no one is there to stay thy wealth.<br /> Most liberal Giver thou, do thou inspire our song of praise, that we may win the spoil.<br /> &lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</div>
