Recitation with translationRig Veda 8.40.7

yád indrā́gnī jánā imé vi-hváyante tánā girā́ | asmā́kebhir nṛ́bhir vayáṃ sāsahyā́ma pṛtanyató vanuyā́ma vanuṣyató nábhantām anyaké samé ||

हे इंद्रा-अग्नी! हे लोक आपल्या स्वराने, आपल्या गिरा (स्तोत्रवाणी)ने तुम्हांला हाक मारतात—तेव्हा आमच्या नरवीरांसह आम्ही तग धरू व जिंकू; जे लढतात त्यांच्याविरुद्धही, आणि जे जिंकण्यास उद्यत आहेत त्यांच्याविरुद्धही आम्ही विजय मिळवू; आणि इतर जण त्याच रणभूमीत उधळून पडोत.
