Transliteration
yád indra diví pā́rye yád ṛ́dhag yád vā́ své sádane yátra vā́ ási | átó no yajñám aváse niyutvā́n sa-jóṣāḥ pāhi girvaṇo marúd-bhiḥ ||
Translation
Ob du, Indra, jenseits im Himmel bist, oder abgesondert, oder in deinem eigenen Sitz, wo immer du wohnst — von dort behüte unser Opfer zu seinem schützenden Beistand. Angeschirrt, in Eintracht, schütze uns, o Herr des Gesangs, zusammen mit den Maruts.
