न त्वावां॑ अ॒न्यो दि॒व्यो न पार्थि॑वो॒ न जा॒तो न ज॑निष्यते । अ॒श्वा॒यन्तो॑ मघवन्निन्द्र वा॒जिनो॑ ग॒व्यन्त॑स्त्वा हवामहे

Recitation with translationAtharva Veda 20.121.2

ná tvā-vā́n anyó divyó ná pārthivó ná jātó ná janiṣyate | aśvāyánto maghavan índra vājíno gavyántaḥ tvā havāmahe

None other, heavenly or earthly, is like unto thee; none hath been born, nor shall be born. Seeking horses, O bounteous Indra, seeking the prize and seeking cattle, we call on thee.

لا أحدَ سواك، لا سماويٌّ ولا أرضيّ، يُشابِهك؛ لم يولدْ مثلُك أحدٌ، ولن يُولد. ونحن نطلب الخيل، يا مَغهاڤان (السخيّ) إندرا، ونطلب الظَّفَر والغنيمة، ونطلب الماشية—فنَدعوك.
