O Indra! Just as you had performed somapan in the sacrifices of sages like Angira etc. in ancient times, do the same in this yajna of ours. May the drunk som please you. You listen to our mantra-form hymns. May you receive growth through our praises. You illuminate the sun. Make food our means of consumption and destroy our enemies. O Indra! Bring us our cows stolen by the waters. (1)
