कर्हि सवित सा त इन्द्र चेत्यासदघस्य यद भिनदो रक्षेषत | मित्रक्रुवो यच्छसने न गावः पर्थिव्या आप्र्गमुया शयन्ते

karhi svit sā ta indra cetyāsadaghasya yad bhinado rakṣaeṣat | mitrakruvo yacchasane na ghāvaḥ pṛthivyā āpṛghamuyā śayante

English Translation (Griffith)

Where was the vengeful dart when thou, O Indra, clavest the demon ever beat on outrage? When fiends lay there upon the ground extended like cattle in the place of immolation?
