HYMN 2 Indra

1

Let the drops pass within thee as the rivers flow into the sea
O Indra, naught excelleth thee.

2

'Thou' wakeful hero, by thy might hast taken food of Soma juice,
Which, Indra, is within thee now.

3

O Indra, Vritra-slayer, let Soma be ready for thy maw, The drops be ready for thy forms!
