IAST Transliteration

tváṁ ha tyát saptábhyo jā́yamāno ’śatrúbhyo abhavaḥ śátrur indra | gūḷhé dyā́vā-pṛthivī́ ánv-avindo vibhúmadbhyo bhúvanebhyo ráṇaṁ dhāḥ ||

English Translation (Griffith/Whitney)

Thou, even from thy birth for the Seven, wast foe to foes and friend to the unhostile, O Indra. Hidden, Heaven and Earth thou didst track and find; from the wide worlds thou didst set battle in place.

Translation

ହେ ଇନ୍ଦ୍ର, ତୁମେ ଜନ୍ମରୁ ହିଁ ‘ସାତ’ ପାଇଁ (ସପ୍ତଭ୍ୟଃ) ଶତ୍ରୁମାନଙ୍କର ଶତ୍ରୁ ଏବଂ ଅଶତ୍ରୁମାନଙ୍କର ମିତ୍ର ହେଲ। ଗୁପ୍ତ ଥିବା ଦ୍ୟାବା-ପୃଥିବୀକୁ ତୁମେ ଅନୁସରି ଖୋଜି ପାଇଲ; ବିଭୁମତ୍ ଭୁବନମାନଙ୍କୁ ନେଇ ତୁମେ ରଣ (ଯୁଦ୍ଧ)କୁ ସ୍ଥାପନ କଲ।
