तवां जना ममसत्येष्विन्द्र सन्तस्थाना वि हवयन्तेसमीके | अत्रा युजं कर्णुते यो हविष्मान नासुन्वतासख्यं वष्टि शूरः

tvāṃ janā mamasatyeṣvindra santasthānā vi hvayantesamīke | atrā yujaṃ kṛṇute yo haviṣmān nāsunvatāsakhyaṃ vaṣṭi śūraḥ

Standing, in battle for their rights, together, the people, Indra, in the fray invoke thee. Him who brings gifts the Hero makes his comrade: with him who pours no juice he seeks not friendship.
