To life and strength my friends recall,

And bring them back from Yáma's hall.

When, fresh in might the warriors rise,

Prepare a feast to glad their eyes.

Let fruits of every season glow,

And streams of purest water flow.”

Thus Raghu's son, great-hearted, prayed,

And Indra thus his answer made:

“High is the boon thou seekest: none

Should win this grace but Raghu's son.
