Sukta 115

ये त्वामि॑न्द्र॒ न तु॑ष्टु॒वुर्ऋष॑यो॒ ये च॑ तुष्टु॒वुः । ममेद् व॑र्धस्व॒ सुष्टु॑तः

Recitation with translationAtharva Veda 20.115.3

yé tvā́m indra ná tuṣṭuvúr ṛ́ṣayo yé ca tuṣṭuvúḥ | mamé́d vardhasva sú-ṣṭutaḥ

Whether seers have praised thee not, O Indra, or whether they have praised thee—do thou, when well lauded, increase for me alone.

इंद्र, कुछ रिशियों ने तुम्हारी तारीफ की, कुछ ने नहीं की। जब लोग अच्छे से तारीफ करते हैं, तब तुम मेरी तरफ देखो और मुझे बड़ा करो।
