Sukta 8.3
इमे हि ते कारवो वावशुर्धिया विप्रासो मेधसातये । स त्वं नो मघवन्निन्द्र गिर्वणो वेनो न शृणुधी हवम् ॥
imé hí te kārávo vāvaśúr dhiyā́ víprāso medhá-sātaye | sá tváṃ no maghavann indra girvaṇo venó na śṛṇudhī́ hávam ||
These your singers have cried aloud with inspired thought, O Indra, the illumined ones for the winning of intelligence. So you, for us, O bountiful Indra, lover of hymns, hear the call as a yearning lover hears.
