Sukta 75

Mantra 1

वि त्वा ततस्रे मिथुना अवस्यवो व्रजस्य साता गव्यस्य निःसृजः सक्षन्त इन्द्र निःसृजः । यद् गव्यन्त द्वा जना स्व१र्यन्ता समूहसि । आविष्करिक्रद् वृषणं सचाभुवं वज्रमिन्द्र सचाभुवम्

Forth have they spread themselves, in pairs, the seekers of thy aid—winning the cattle-pen; they are able, O Indra, to release the cattle-wealth, to release it. When two parties, craving kine, and striving for the light, thou bringest into encounter—make manifest the bull-like might, the bolt that goeth with thee, O Indra, that goeth with thee.

Mantra 2

विदुष्टे अस्य वीर्यऽस्य पूरवः पुरो यदिन्द्र शारदीरवातिरः सासहानो अवातिरः । शासस्तमिन्द्र मर्त्यमयजुं शवसस्पते । महीममुष्णाः पृथिवीमिमा अपो मन्दसान इमा अपः

The Pūrus know this thy heroic might—when, conquering, thou didst overthrow the autumnal forts, O Indra, didst overthrow them. Most lordly, Indra, smite the mortal who sacrificeth not, O lord of strength. Thou hast not reft away the mighty Earth; these Waters—rejoicing—these Waters (are thine to uphold).

Mantra 3

आदित् ते अस्य वीर्यऽस्य चर्किरन् मदेषु वृषन्नुशिजो यदाविथ सखीयतो यदाविथ । चकर्थ कारमेभ्यः पृतनासु प्रवन्तवे । ते अन्यामन्यां नद्यं सनिष्णत श्रवस्यन्तः सनिष्णत

Then have they celebrated this thy heroic power, O Bull, in raptures—when thou didst help the zealous, when thou didst help the friendly. Thou hast achieved for the singers, in battles, for the forward-rushing champion: they, seeking fame, have won each river in turn, have won (it).
