Sukta 66
आ॒त॒न्वा॒ना आ॒यच्छ॒न्तोऽस्य॑न्तो॒ ये च॒ धाव॑थ । निर्ह॑स्ताः शत्रवः स्थ॒नेन्द्रो॑ वोऽद्य परा॑शरीत्
ā-tanvānā́ ā́-yacchanto ’syánto yé ca dhā́vatha | nír-hastāḥ śatravaḥ sthána índro vo ’dyá parā́śarīt
Ye who extend yourselves, who reach and shoot, and ye who rush—stand ye, O enemies, disarmed: Indra hath this day shattered you utterly.
जो लोग फैल रहे हैं, जो हमारे पास आ रहे हैं, जो तीर चला रहे हैं, जो दौड़ रहे हैं, तुम सब दुश्मन, अपने हाथ छोड़ के खड़े रहो। आज इंद्र ने तुम सब को तोड़ दिया है।
