Syngrafi

Indra

2Accept, O Indra, and enjoy the well−dressed sacrificial cake: Oblations are poured forth to thee.

3Consume our sacrificial cake, accept the songs of praise we sing, As he who woes accepts his bride.

4Famed from of old, accept the cake at our libation poured at dawn, Forgreat, O Indra, is thy power.

5Let roasted corn of our midday libation, and sacrificial cake here please thee, Indra, What time the lauding singer, keen of purpose and eager as a bull, with hymns implores thee.

6At the third sacrifice, O thou whom many praise, give glory to the roasted corn and holy cake. With offered viands and with songs may we assist thee, Sage, whom Vaja and the Rbhus wait upon.

7The groats have we prepared for thee with Pusan, corn for thee, Lord of Bay Steeds, with thy horses. Eat thou the meal−cake, banded with the Maruts, wise Hero, Vrtra−slayer, drink the Soma.

8Bring forth the roasted corn to meet him quickly, cake for the bravest Hero mid the heroes. Indra, may hymns accordant with thee daily strengthen thee, Bold One, for the draught of So ma.
