1. Indra and Agni, these our songs of praise have sounded forth to you:
Ye who bring blessings! drink the juice

2. Come, Indra, Agni, with those teams, desired of many, which ye have,
O heroes, for the worshipper

3. With those to his libation poured, ye heroes, Indra, Agni, come:
Come ye to drink the Soma-juice!
