Sukta 11
इन्द्रो॑ जा॒तो म॑नु॒ष्येऽष्व॒न्तर्घ॒र्मस्त॒प्तश्च॑रति॒ शोशु॑चानः । सु॒प्र॒जाः सन्त्स उ॑दा॒रे न स॑र्ष॒द्यो नाश्नी॒यादन॒डुहो॑ विजा॒नन्
índro jātó manuṣyè’śv-ántar gharmás taptáś carati śóśucānaḥ | suprajā́ḥ sán sá udarè ná sarṣad yó ná’śnīyād anaḍúhaḥ vijā́nann
Indra, born among men, as heated Gharma moveth within the horse, blazing. Being rich in offspring, he in the belly shall not slip away—if one, with understanding, eat not of the draught-ox.
ইন্দ্ৰ মানুহৰ মাজত জন্ম লৈ, অশ্বৰ ভিতৰত তপ্ত ঘৰ্মৰ দৰে জ্বলি-উঠি চলি থাকে। সুপ্ৰজাঃ হৈ, উদৰৰ ভিতৰত সৰি নাযায়—যদি বুজি-শুনি কোনোবাই অনড্বান (জোঁত-গৰু)ৰ মাংস নাখায়।
