34. Wonderful Vâyu, Lord of Truth, thou who art Tvashtar’s Son in-law, Thy saving succour we elect.
35. Like kine unmilked we call aloud, Hero, to thee and sing thy praise, Looker on heavenly light, Lord of this moving world, Lord, Indra! of what moveth not.
36. None other like to thee, of earth or of the heavens, hath been or ever will be born. Desiring horses, Indra, Bounteous Lord! and kine, as men of might we call on thee.
37. That we may win us wealth and power, we poets call on only thee. In war men call on thee, Indra! the hero’s Lord, in the steed’s race-course call on thee.
38. As such, O Wonderful, whose hand holds thunder, praised as mighty, Caster of the Stone!
Pour on us boldly, Indra, kine and chariot-steeds ever to be the conqueror’s strength.
39. What succour will he bring to us, wonderful, ever-prospering Friend? With what most mighty company?
40. What, genuine and most liberal draught will spirit thee with juice to burst Open e’en strongly-guarded wealth
41. Do thou who art protector of us thy friends who praise thee With hundred aids approach us.
42. Sing to your Agni with each song, at every sacrifice, for strength. Come, let us praise the Wise and Everlasting God even as a well-belovèd Friend.
43. Protect us, Agni, through the first, protect us through the second hymn. Protect us through three hymns, O Lord of Power and Might; through four hymns, Vasu! guard thou us.
44. The Son of Strength; for is he not our Friend? Let us serve him for offering our gifts. In battles may he be our help and strengthener, yea, be the saviour of our lives.
45 Thou art Samvatsara; thou art Parivatsara; thou art Idâvatsara; thou art Idvatsara; thou art Vatsara. Prosper thy Dawns! Prosper thy Day-and-Nights! Prosper thy Half-months, Months, Seasons, and Years! Combine them for their going and their coming, and send then forward on their ordered courses. In eagle’s shape thou art piled up and layered. With that divinity, Angiras-like, lie steady.
