Sukta 72

Mantra 1

इन्द्रः। उत् ति॑ष्ठ॒ताव॑ पश्य॒तेन्द्र॑स्य भा॒गमृ॒त्विय॑म्। यदि॑ श्रा॒तं॑ जु॒होत॑न॒ यद्यश्रा॑तं म॒मत्त॑न

Arise; look forth and behold Indra’s portion, the portion that is of the rite. If ye offer what is well-cooked, (then) offer; if what is ill-cooked, then make him glad (therewith).

Mantra 2

श्रा॒तं ह॒विरो ष्वि॑न्द्र॒ प्र या॑हि ज॒गाम॒ सूरो॒ अध्व॑नो॒ वि मध्य॑म्। परि॑ त्वासते नि॒धिभिः॒ सखा॑यः कुल॒पा न व्रा॑जप॒तिं चर॑न्तम्

The well-cooked oblation—O Indra—come forth unto it: the Sun hath reached the midmost of his course. Round thee sit thy comrades with treasures, as clan-guards about the lord of the cattle-fold moving to and fro.

Mantra 3

श्रा॒तं म॑न्य॒ ऊध॑नि श्रा॒तम॒ग्नौ सुशृ॑तं मन्ये॒ तदृ॒तं नवी॑यः । माध्य॑न्दिनस्य॒ सव॑नस्य द॒ध्नः पिबे॑न्द्र वज्रिन् पुरु॒कृज्जु॑षा॒णः

Well-cooked, I deem it, in the udder; well-cooked in the fire, well-prepared—I deem that the right, the newer order. Drink, O Indra, bolt-bearer, of the curds of the midday pressing, taking pleasure, thou of many deeds.
