सूक्त १८०

प्र ससाहिषे पुरुहूत शत्रूञ्ज्येष्ठस्ते शुष्म इह रातिरस्तु। इन्द्रा भर दक्षिणेना वसूनि पतिः सिन्धूनामसि रेवतीनाम्॥

pra sasāhiṣe puruhūta śatrūñjyeṣṭhaste śuṣma iha rātirastu | indrā bhara dakṣiṇenā vasūni patiḥ sindhūnāmasi revatīnām ||

O MUCH-INVOKED, thou hast subdued thy foemen: thy might is loftiest; here display thy bounty. In thy right hand, O Indra, bring us treasures: thou art the Lord of rivers filled with riches.

मृगो न भीमः कुचरो गिरिष्ठाः परावत आ जगन्था परस्याः। सृकं संशाय पविमिन्द्र तिग्मं वि शत्रून्ताळ्हि वि मृधो नुदस्व॥

mṛgo na bhīmaḥ kucaro giriṣṭhāḥ parāvata ā jaganthā parasyāḥ | sṛkaṁ saṁśāya pavimindra tigmaṁ vi śatrūntāḻhi vi mṛdho nudasva ||

Like a dread wild beast roaming on the mountain thou hast approached us from the farthest distance. Whetting thy bold and thy sharp blade, O Indra, crush thou the foe and scatter those who hate us.

इन्द्र क्षत्रमभि वाममोजोऽजायथा वृषभ चर्षणीनाम्। अपानुदो जनममित्रयन्तमुरुं देवेभ्यो अकृणोरु लोकम्॥

indra kṣatramabhi vāmamojo'jāyathā vṛṣabha carṣaṇīnām | apānudo janamamitrayantamuruṁ devebhyo akṛṇoru lokam ||

Thou, mighty Indra, sprangest into being as strength for lovely lordship o'er the people. Thou drovest off the folk who were unfriendly, and to the Gods thou gavest room and freedom.
