8.88.2
द्यु॒क्षं सु॒दानुं॒ तवि॑षीभि॒रावृ॑तं गि॒रिं न पु॑रु॒भोज॑सम् | क्षु॒मन्तं॒ वाजं॑ श॒तिनं॑ सह॒स्रिणं॑ म॒क्षू गोम॑न्तमीमहे ||
Lord of Bay Steeds, fair-helmed, rejoice thee: this we crave. Here the disposers wait on thee. Thy loftiest glories claim our lauds beside the juice, O Indra, Lover of the Song.
8.88.3
न त्वा॑ बृ॒हन्तो॒ अद्र॑यो॒ वर॑न्त इन्द्र वी॒ळव॑: | यद्दित्स॑सि स्तुव॒ते माव॑ते॒ वसु॒ नकि॒ष्टदा मि॑नाति ते ||
Turning, as ’twere, to meet the Sun, enjoy from Indra all good things. When he who will be born is born with power we look to treasures as our heritage.
8.88.4
योद्धा॑सि॒ क्रत्वा॒ शव॑सो॒त दं॒सना॒ विश्वा॑ जा॒ताभि म॒ज्मना॑ | आ त्वा॒यम॒र्क ऊ॒तये॑ ववर्तति॒ यं गोत॑मा॒ अजी॑जनन् ||
Praise him who sends us wealth, whose bounties injure none: good are the gifts which Indra. grants. He is not worth with one who satisfies his wish: he turns his mind to giving boons.
8.88.5
प्र हि रि॑रि॒क्ष ओज॑सा दि॒वो अन्ते॑भ्य॒स्परि॑ | न त्वा॑ विव्याच॒ रज॑ इन्द्र॒ पार्थि॑व॒मनु॑ स्व॒धां व॑वक्षिथ ||
Thou in thy battles, Indra, art subduer of all hostile bands. Father art thou, aIl-conquering, cancelling the curse, thou victor of the vanquisher.
8.88.6
नकि॒: परि॑ष्टिर्मघवन्म॒घस्य॑ ते॒ यद्दा॒शुषे॑ दश॒स्यसि॑ | अ॒स्माकं॑ बोध्यु॒चथ॑स्य चोदि॒ता मंहि॑ष्ठो॒ वाज॑सातये ||
The Earth and Heaven clung close to thy victorious might as to their calf two mother-cows. When thou attackest Vṛtra all the hostile bands shrink and faint, Indra, at thy wrath.
