Atharva Veda 20.117.2: Kanda 20, Anuvaka 12, Sukta 117, Mantra 2
Sukta 117
यस्ते॒ मदो॒ युज्य॒श्चारु॒रस्ति॒ येन॑ वृ॒त्राणि॑ हर्यश्व॒ हंसि॑ । स त्वामि॑न्द्र प्रभूवसो ममत्तु
yás te mádo yújyaś cā́rur ásti yéna vṛtrā́ṇi haryáśva háṃsi | sá tvām indra prabhūvaso mamattu
That exhilaration of thine which is fit for use and gracious, whereby, O tawny-horsed, thou smitest down the obstructions—let that, O Indra, lord of ample wealth, intoxicate thee.
इंद्र, तुम्हारी वो खुशी जो सही काम के लिए है, जिससे तुम दुश्मनो को हराते हो, वो खुशी तुम्हे मिल जाए। तुम बड़े दौलत वाले हो, इसलिए यह रस तुम्हे और भी ताकतवर बना दे।
