Transliteration

índro mahnā́ maható arṇavásya vratā́m inād áṅgirobhir gṛṇānáḥ | purū́ṇi cin ní tatānā rájāṃsi dādhā́ra yó dharúṇaṃ satyátātā ||

Translation

ಇಂದ್ರನು ತನ್ನ ಮಹಿಮೆಯಿಂದ ಮಹತ್ ಅರ್ಣವದ ವ್ರತಗಳನ್ನು ಚಲನೆಗೆ ತಂದನು; ಅಂಗಿರಸ ಋಷಿಗಳಿಂದ ಸ್ತುತಿಸಲ್ಪಟ್ಟು. ಅವನು ಅನೇಕ ರಜಾಂಸಿಗಳನ್ನೂ ವಿಸ್ತರಿಸಿ ಸ್ಥಾಪಿಸಿದನು; ಮತ್ತು ಸತ್ಯತೆಯ ಶಕ್ತಿಯಿಂದ ಧರುಣ—ಆಧಾರ, ಧಾರಕ—ವನ್ನು ಧರಿಸುವವನು ಅವನೇ.
