अ॒स्माक॒मिन्द्रः॒ समृ॑तेषु ध्व॒जेष्व॒स्माक॒ या इष॑व॒स्ता ज॑यन्तु । अ॒स्माकं॑ वी॒रा उत्त॑रे भवन्त्व॒स्मान् दे॑वासोऽवता॒ हवे॑षु

Our Indra (be) at the standards in the encounters; our arrows—let those conquer. Our heroes—let them be the uppermost; us may the gods protect in our calls.
Наш Индра — у знамён в схватках; наши стрелы — пусть они побеждают. Наши воины — пусть будут наверху; нас да охранят боги в наших призываниях.
