इन्द्र॒ इद्धर्योः॒ सचा॒ संमि॑श्ल॒ आ व॑चो॒युजा॑ । इन्द्रो॑ व॒ज्री हि॑र॒ण्ययः॑

Recitation with translationAtharva Veda 20.38.5

índra íd haryóḥ sácā sáṃmiśla ā́ vacoyújā | índro vajrī́ hiraṇyáyaḥ

Indra indeed, in company with the two Bays, closely joined, comes hither—yoked with our speech: Indra, the thunderbolt-bearer, golden-bright.

इंद्र आ रहे हैं। उनके दो घोड़े हैं जो उनके साथ चले आ रहे हैं। हमारी बातों के साथ इंद्र जुड़ के आ रहे हैं। इंद्र के पास वज्र है, जो सोना जैसा चमक रहा है।
