The cosmic deeds of mighty Indra, we do recount now with voices filled with wonder,
The great and glorious acts that he hath wrought in ages past and present both,
The miracles and marvels that do testify unto his power without measure.

Indra did stride across the heavens, and with each footstep, worlds were created,
The span of his feet doth measure the space 'tween the earth and the sky,
His head doth touch the stars themselves, his body filleth all the cosmos,
And there is no place wherein Indra's might doth not reach and hold dominion.

He did fight the great battle 'gainst Vṛtra, the serpent of impediment,
For ages long and terrible, with thunder's awful voice they contended,
Until Indra, summoning forth all his strength eternal,
Did strike with the thunderbolt and shattered the serpent's immortal coils.

At that moment, the cosmos did convulse, the very fabric of being did rend asunder,
The waters that were trapped in darkness leaped forth like liberated slaves,
The light that had been bound in the serpent's grip burst forth and flooded all the worlds,
And the sun did shine in glory 'cross the heavens once again made clear.

Indra did rescue the sun from the demon Sūrya who had swallowed it,
He did reach into the depths and draw it forth with hands of thunder,
And the golden orb did rise again upon the eastern sky,
Bringing warmth and light and blessing unto all the living beings.

He did hold the mountains firm upon their seats eternal and unshakeable,
He did prevent the earth from sinking 'neath the weight of all the waters,
He did establish the foundations fast and keep them fast forever,
That the lands might know stability and not be lost in chaos.

Indra did protect the Ṛbhus, those divine craftsmen skilled and wondrous,
He did favor them with gifts of immortality and eternal life,
And their handiwork doth shine throughout the cosmos in testament to his regard.

He did grant unto Urvāśi, the heavenly damsel fair and beautiful,
The power to charm the mortal hearts and draw them toward the divine,
Yet also did he preserve their purity that they might serve the sacred purpose.

The cosmic deeds of Indra cannot all be numbered nor accounted,
For his actions span the vast expanse of time and space eternal,
And with each one of these great deeds doth he ensure that all creation doth maintain its being.

We mortals stand in awe before these wonders great and terrible,
We do praise Indra with our voices and our hearts devoted true,
And we do beg him to continue in his cosmic labors noble,
That all the worlds may flourish and be blessed by his eternal vigilance.
