Recitation with translationRig Veda 6.23.8

sa mán dasvā́ hy ànu jóṣam ugra prá tvā yajñā́sa imé aśnuvantu | préme havā́saḥ puruhūtám asmè ā́ tvéyaṃ dhī́r avase indra yamyā́ḥ ||

Wahai Indra, Yang Gagah Perkasa, bergembiralah—meluaslah dalam nikmat persetujuan jiwa; semoga kerja-kerja yajña kami ini sampai dan memegang-Mu. Semoga seruan-seruan kami mara ke hadapan menuju Yang Banyak-diseru dalam diri kami; kepada-Mu semoga dhīrā (fikiran-bercahaya) ini memasangkan dirinya demi bantuan kami, wahai Indra.
