AV 7 86.1

त्रातारम् इन्द्रम् अवितारम् इन्द्रं हवेहवे सुहवं शूरम् इन्द्रम् । हुवे नु शक्रं पुरुहूतम् इन्द्रं स्वस्ति न इन्द्रो मघवान् कृणोतु

trātāram indram avitāram indraṃ havehave suhavaṃ śūram indram | huve nu śakraṃ puruhūtam indraṃ svasti na indro maghavān kṛṇotu

Indra the protector, Indra the helper, Indra the hero, easy to call at every call—I call now upon the able Indra, much-invoked; may bountiful Indra make well-being for us.

Indra the rescuer, Indra the helper, Indra the brave who hears each invocation, Sakra I call, Indra invoked of many. May Indra Maghavan pros- per and bless us.
