Sukta 4
प॒श्चात् प्राञ्च॒ आ त॑न्वन्ति॒ यदु॒देति॒ वि भा॑सति । र॒श्मिभि॒र्नभ॒ आभृ॑तं महे॒न्द्र ए॒त्यावृ॑तः
paścā́t prā́ñca ā́ tanvanti yád udéti ví bhā́sati | raśmíbhir nábha ā́bhṛtaṃ mahéndra éty ā́vṛtaḥ ||
From the rear to the fore they stretch abroad, when he arises and shines out widely. With rays the firmament is borne and filled: great Indra comes, encompassed round about.
পিছফালৰ পৰা আগফাললৈ সিহঁতে বিস্তাৰ কৰে, যেতিয়া তেওঁ উদয় হৈ বহলকৈ দীপ্ত হয়। ৰশ্মিসমূহে নভোমণ্ডল ধৰি-পূৰি ৰাখে; মহেন্দ্ৰ ইন্দ্ৰ চাৰিওফালে আৱৃত হৈ আগবাঢ়ি আহে।
