1. Just like the way in which we summon the cows for milking, we need to summon for our protection; the Indra, the one who is the doer of the pure karmas.

2. Oh Indra the one who drinks the soma, please come to the place of our yagna for drinking the soma. Let you the one who is the cause of all prosperity and richness; provide us with various types of wealth like cows etc.

3. Oh Indra, with the faculties of the intellect who resides within you, let us know you well. Let you wont be against us. Let you accept us than disowning us.

4. Oh humans, let you go to Indra, the one who is the undefeated and the doer of karmas for the receiving riches and prosperity for your relatives.

5. Let the one who do 'upasana' of Indra, makes the people who are against him run away to the farther lands.

A way to look on the translation of verses:

when the readers read the content above, they should not forget the fact of underlying meanings. prima facie, it looks like a old praise of the vedic village ceremony. But let me try to provide this time a new way of looking into it. Here,the indra is the mind of a being. the cow is the symbol of mother nature and milking is the process by which the understanding of the mother nature in subtle form. soma is delight or ananda. so if the mind is in eternal delight , then the prosperity and richness will be manifested on its own. for understanding indra, the mind; its requested to have the faculties of intellect , the gyana indria to be present. its been mentioned that with this indriya you should understand the mind or indra better. when mind is understood , it will revolt for sure. so this mind has to be calmed. The yagna is the life or an instant of life.

Also , mind who is undefeated and the doer of karmas ; progress, riches and prosperity will prevail. This line is attributed to humans who always achieve wealth for oneself and the relatives and considers it as a priorty .

But those who do upasana of the mind, will differentiate every being based on worldly rules and will try to make those ideas or people to run away to a distance. This is what a human being commonly do in his/her day to day life.

this is a humble attempt to make the readers realize a way to delve into the inner meaning of these lines.

will continue with the sukta translations now... :)
