Sukta 121
न त्वावां॑ अ॒न्यो दि॒व्यो न पार्थि॑वो॒ न जा॒तो न ज॑निष्यते । अ॒श्वा॒यन्तो॑ मघवन्निन्द्र वा॒जिनो॑ ग॒व्यन्त॑स्त्वा हवामहे
ná tvā-vā́n anyó divyó ná pārthivó ná jātó ná janiṣyate | aśvāyánto maghavan índra vājíno gavyántaḥ tvā havāmahe
None other, heavenly or earthly, is like unto thee; none hath been born, nor shall be born. Seeking horses, O bounteous Indra, seeking the prize and seeking cattle, we call on thee.
天なるものも地なるものも、汝に比すべき他者はない。生まれた者もなく、また生まれ来る者もない。施与豊かなインドラよ、馬を求めつつ、戦利と勝利を求めつつ、また牛群を求めつつ、われらは汝を呼び招く。
