Rig Veda
yoniṣ ṭa indra niṣade akāri tam ā ni ṣīda svāno nārvā vimucyā vayo 'vasāyāśvān doṣā vastor vahīyasaḥ prapitve
The altar hath been made for thee to rest on: come like a panting courser and be seated. Loosen thy flying Steeds, set free thy Horses who bear thee swiftly nigh at eve and morning.
o tye nara indram ūtaye gur nū cit tān sadyo adhvano jagamyāt devāso manyuṃ dāsasya ścamnan te na ā vakṣan suvitāya varṇam
These men have come to Indra for assistance: shall he not quickly come upon these pathways? May the Gods quell the fury of the Dasa, and may they lead our folk to happy fortune.
ava tmanā bharate ketavedā ava tmanā bharate phenam udan kṣīreṇa snātaḥ kuyavasya yoṣe hate te syātām pravaṇe śiphāyāḥ
He who hath only wish as his possession casts on himself, casts foam amid the waters. Both wives of Kuyava in milk have bathed them: may they be drowned within the depth of Sipha.
yuyopa nābhir uparasyāyoḥ pra pūrvābhis tirate rāṣṭi śūraḥ añjasī kuliśī vīrapatnī payo hinvānā udabhir bharante
This hath his kinship checked who lives beside us: with ancient streams forth speeds and rules the Hero, Añjasi, Kulisi, and Virapatni, delighting him, bear milk upon their waters.
prati yat syā nīthādarśi dasyor oko nācchā sadanaṃ jānatī gāt adha smā no maghavañ carkṛtād in mā no magheva niṣṣapī parā dāḥ
Soon as this Dasyu's traces were discovered, as she who knows her home, he sought the dwelling. Now think thou of us, Maghavan, nor cast us away as doth a profligate his treasure.
sa tvaṃ na indra sūrye so apsv anāgāstva ā bhaja jīvaśaṃse māntarām bhujam ā rīriṣo naḥ śraddhitaṃ te mahata indriyāya
Indra, as such, give us a share of sunlight, of waters, sinlessness, and reputation. Do thou no harm to our yet unborn offspring: our trust is in thy mighty Indra-power.
adhā manye śrat te asmā adhāyi vṛṣā codasva mahate dhanāya mā no akṛte puruhūta yonāv indra kṣudhyadbhyo vaya āsutiṃ dāḥ
Now we, I think, in thee as such have trusted: lead us on, Mighty One, to ample riches. In no unready house give us, O Indra invoked of many, food and drink when hungry.
mā no vadhīr indra mā parā dā mā naḥ priyā bhojanāni pra moṣīḥ āṇḍā mā no maghavañchakra nir bhen mā naḥ pātrā bhet sahajānuṣāṇi
Slay us not, Indra; do not thou forsake us: steal not away the joys which we delight in. Rend not our unborn brood, strong Lord of Bounty! our vessels with the life that is within them.

Come to us; they have called thee Soma-lover: here is the pressed juice. Drink thereof for rapture. Widely-capacious, pour it down within thee, and, invocated, hear us like a Father.
