English Translation (Griffith/Whitney)

Thou, thou wast irresistible when praised of old by the former sacrificers, O Indra of tawny hair. Thou art the tawny-bright; all that is worthy of hymn is thine: I win thy bounty, O tawny-born, the tawny boon most to be desired.

Translation

ਤੂੰ, ਤੂੰ—ਹਰ੍ਯਥਾ—ਪੁਰਾਤਨ ਯਜ੍ਵਾਂ ਵੱਲੋਂ ਸਤੁਤ ਹੋਣ ਤੇ ਅਪਰਾਜਿਤ ਸੀ, ਹੇ ਹਰੀ-ਕੇਸ਼ ਇੰਦਰ। ਤੂੰ ਹਰੀ-ਦੀਪਤੀ ਵਾਲਾ ਹੈਂ; ਉਕਥ੍ਯ (ਸਤੋਤ੍ਰ-ਯੋਗ) ਜੋ ਕੁਝ ਹੈ ਸਭ ਤੇਰਾ ਹੈ। ਹੇ ਹਰਿਜਾਤ, ਮੈਂ ਤੇਰਾ ਰਾਧਸ (ਦਾਨ/ਕਿਰਪਾ) ਪ੍ਰਾਪਤ ਕਰਦਾ ਹਾਂ—ਸਭ ਤੋਂ ਇੱਛਿਤ ਹਰੀ ਵਰ।
