Indra, bring us resolve, as a father to his sons; instruct us on this course, O much-invoked; may we, living, attain the light.

मा नो अज्ञाता वृजना दुराध्यो३ माशिवासोऽव क्रमुः । त्वया वयं प्रवतः शश्वतीरपोऽति शूर तरामसि
mā no ajñātā vṛjanā durādhyo3 māśivāso'va kramuḥ | tvayā vayaṃ pravataḥ śaśvatīrapo'ti śūra tarāmasi
Let not unknown hostile bands, ill-intentioned, let not the unkindly ones tread us down; with you, O hero, we cross over the continual downward-rushing waters.

Grant that no mighty foes, unknown, malevolent unhallowed, tread us to the ground! With thine assistance, hero, may we pass through all the waters that are rushing down!
