Sama Veda II.5.1.13: Though, Indra, thou art called by men eastward
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1895) · From Hymns of the Samaveda (1895)
1. Though, Indra, thou art called by men eastward and westward, north and south,
Thou chiefly art with Anava and Turvasa, brave champion! urged by men to come.
2. Or, Indra, when with Ruma, Rusama, Syavaka, and Kripa thou rejoicest thee,
Still do the Kanvas, bringing prayer, with hymns of praise O Indra, draw thee hither: come!
