Indra, My Lord ~ A Poem.

 


Oh Indra, Lord of the heavens, so high

Thunderer , striker with Vajra

With rapture and terror, striker of demons 

Striker of lightning,  ruling the skies

Seated on celestial heights

With mighty rapture you state your will

King of the Gods of the Aryavarta

You are manly and splendid

With thunderous roar and lightning nigh,

Reigning over Varuna, Rudra and all the other Gods

Striker of lightning with mighty vajra

In the pantheon of gods, you reign,

A celestial power, no mortal can feign

Mighty, manly Indra, my Lord and Master

The singers sing pious songs

All in supplication to you master thunderer

Wielder of the mighty vajra

Battler of the vile serpent

Split in the middle by the vajra

Ride in the skies, unchallenged, mighty Indra

Slayer of the serpent,  Oh, my Lord

You are the beacon of light, when the darkness of the demons stalk

Drinker of soma ,Giver of life

Supreme judge ,Might warrior

Leader of the Aryans

Lands beyond noble Aryavarta

Your own kingdom in Bharatvarsha

Bow the men of the Earth to Aryavarta and Indra

With your valiant steed your ride unchallenged

Glorious vajra, thunderbolt so bright

So deadly, so fierce, Demons take fright

In you chariot you ride across the universe

On your mighty elephant, mighty mirgahastin

Airavata, your noble marble white steed

Guiding the chariot where the sun does rise
