तं ते मदं गृणीमसि वृषणं पृक्षु सासहिम् उ लोककृत्नुमद्रिवो हरिश्रियम्
taṃ te madaṃ gṛṇīmasi vṛṣaṇaṃ pṛkṣu sāsahim u lokakṛtnumadrivo hariśriyam

نُرنِّم نشوتَكَ تلك، يا إندرا القويّ، الغالبَ في الصدامات؛ حقًّا، يا حاملَ الفَجْرَة (vajra)، مُقيمَ نظامِ العالم، المتلألئَ بمجدِ خيولِ الهَرِيّ (hari) الشُّقر.
