I yoke to thee Indra the Overmastering, by whom men conquer and are not conquered; who made thee the sole Bull of the peoples, yea, the highest of kings, the foremost among men.
Я сопрягаю с тобою Индру, Всевластного, которым побеждают и не бывают побеждены; который сделал тебя единственным Быком народов, и также высшим из царей, первым среди людей.
