Sukta 5

आ त्वा॑ विशन्तु सु॒तास॑ इन्द्र पृ॒णस्व॑ कु॒क्षी वि॒ड्ढि श॑क्र धि॒येह्या नः॑ । श्रु॒धी हवं॒ गिरो॑ मे जुष॒स्वेन्द्र॑ स्व॒युग्भि॒र्मत्स्वे॒ह म॒हे रणा॑य

Recitation with translationAtharva Veda 2.5.4

ā tvā́ viśantu sutā́sa indra pṛṇásva kukṣī́ víḍḍhi śakra dhiyéhā́ naḥ | śrudhī́ haváṃ gíro me juṣásvendra svayúgbhir mátsvehá mahé ráṇāya

Let the pressed draughts enter thee, O Indra; fill thou thy flanks: smite through, O Mighty, with inspired thought; come hither unto us. Hear thou the call; accept my uttered songs, O Indra; with thine own yoked teams be thou exhilarate here, for the great battle.

ขอให้เครื่องดื่มที่คั้นแล้ว (suta) เข้าไปสู่ท่าน โออินทรา (Indra); จงเติมเต็มสีข้างของท่านให้บริบูรณ์. โอผู้ทรงฤทธิ์ ศักระ (Śakra) จงแทงทะลุและฟาดฟันด้วยญาณดลใจ (dhī); จงมาหาเราที่นี่. ขอทรงสดับเสียงเรียก; ขอทรงยินดีรับถ้อยคำขับร้อง (giraḥ) ของข้า โออินทรา. ด้วยหมู่พาหนะที่เทียมเองของท่าน (yugá) จงเริงร่าอยู่ ณ ที่นี้ เพื่อศึกอันยิ่งใหญ่.
