Rig Veda 6.22.4: Mandala 6, Sukta 22, Mantra 4
Sukta 6.22
तन्नो वि वोचो यदि ते पुरा चिज्जरितार आनशुः सुम्नमिन्द्र । कस्ते भागः किं वयो दुध्र खिद्वः पुरुहूत पुरूवसोऽसुरघ्नः ॥
tán no ví voco yádi te purā́ cít jaritā́ra ānaśúḥ sumnám indra | kás te bhāgáḥ kíṃ váyo dudhra khidváḥ puru-hūta purū́-vaso asura-ghnáḥ ||
Tell it out clearly to us: if even of old the singers attained your grace, O Indra—what is your portion for us now, what strengthening nourishment for our pressed-out effort? O much-invoked, wide-wealthy, slayer of the hostile powers.
