Sukta 4
प॒श्चात् प्राञ्च॒ आ त॑न्वन्ति॒ यदु॒देति॒ वि भा॑सति । र॒श्मिभि॒र्नभ॒ आभृ॑तं महे॒न्द्र ए॒त्यावृ॑तः
paścā́t prā́ñca ā́ tanvanti yád udéti ví bhā́sati | raśmíbhir nábha ā́bhṛtaṃ mahéndra éty ā́vṛtaḥ ||
From the rear to the fore they stretch abroad, when he arises and shines out widely. With rays the firmament is borne and filled: great Indra comes, encompassed round about.
پیچھے سے آگے کی طرف پھیلتے ہیں، جب وہ اٹھتا ہے اور چمکتا ہے۔ کرنوں سے فلک اٹھایا گیا اور بھرا گیا، مہان اندر گھرا ہوا آتا ہے۔
