1. O Come ye hither, sit ye down; to Indra sing ye forth your song,
Companions, bringing hymns of praise,

2. Laud Indra, richest of the rich, who ruleth over noblest wealth,
Beside the flowing Soma juice!

3. May he stand near us in our need with all abundance, for our wealth:
With strength may he come nigh to us!
