HYMN 9 Indra Agni

I

As rain from out the cloud, for you, Indra and Agni, from my thought
This noblest praise hath been produced.

2

Indra and Agni, listen to the singer's call: accept his songs.
Fulfil, ye mighty Lords, his prayers!

3

Give us not up to indigence, ye heroes, Indra, Agni, nor
To Slander and reproach of men!
