Rig Veda

Mandal - 10 (Part - 10)

HYMN 171 Indra

1

FOR Ita's sake who pressed the juice, thou, Indra, didst protect his car,
And hear the Soma-giver's call.

2

Thou from his skin hast borne the head of the swift-moving combatant,
And sought the Soma-pourer's home.

3

Venya, that mortal man, hast thou, for Astrabudhna the devout,
O Indra, many a time set free.

4

Bring, Indra, to the east again that Sun who now is in the west,
Even against the will of Gods.
