Sukta 39

यदिन्द्र चित्र मेहनास्ति त्वादातमद्रिवः। राधस्तन्नो विदद्वस उभयाहस्त्या भर॥

yadindra citra mehanāsti tvādātamadrivaḥ | rādhastanno vidadvasa ubhayāhastyā bhara ||

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

यन्मन्यसे वरेण्यमिन्द्र द्युक्षं तदा भर। विद्याम तस्य ते वयमकूपारस्य दावने॥

yanmanyase vareṇyamindra dyukṣaṁ tadā bhara | vidyāma tasya te vayamakūpārasya dāvane ||

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.

यत्ते दित्सु प्रराध्यं मनो अस्ति श्रुतं बृहत्। तेन दृळ्हा चिदद्रिव आ वाजं दर्षि सातये॥

yatte ditsu prarādhyaṁ mano asti śrutaṁ bṛhat | tena dṛḻhā cidadriva ā vājaṁ darṣi sātaye ||

Thy lofty spirit, far-renowned as fain to give and prompt to win,- With this thou rendest e'en the firm, Stone-Darter! so to gain thee strength.

मंहिष्ठं वो मघोनां राजानं चर्षणीनाम्। इन्द्रमुप प्रशस्तये पूर्वीभिर्जुजुषे गिरः॥

maṁhiṣṭhaṁ vo maghonāṁ rājānaṁ carṣaṇīnām | indramupa praśastaye pūrvībhirjujuṣe giraḥ ||

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

अस्मा इत्काव्यं वच उक्थमिन्द्राय शंस्यम्। तस्मा उ ब्रह्मवाहसे गिरो वर्धन्त्यत्रयो गिरः शुम्भन्त्यत्रयः॥

asmā itkāvyaṁ vaca ukthamindrāya śaṁsyam | tasmā u brahmavāhase giro vardhantyatrayo giraḥ śumbhantyatrayaḥ ||

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.
