Sukta 65
ए॒तो न्विन्द्रं॒ स्तवा॑म॒ सखा॑य॒ स्तोम्यं॒ नर॑म्। कु॒ष्टीर्यो विश्वा॑ अ॒भ्यस्त्येक॒ इत्
etáu nv índraṃ stávāma sákhāyaḥ stómyam náram | kuṣṭī́ryo víśvā abhy àsty éka íd
Come now, O friends: let us praise Indra, the Hero meet for hymns; desirable, he alone indeed surpasseth all.
आओ दोस्तों, इंद्र की तारीफ करते हैं। यह हीरो है जिसकी स्तुति होनी चाहिए। सबसे अलग है वो, सबको पीछे छोड़ा, अकेले ही सबसे आगे है।
