एता उ त्या उषसः केतुमक्रत पूर्वे अर्धे रजसो भानुमञ्जते । निष्कृण्वाना आयुधानीव धृष्णवः प्रति गावोऽरुषीर्यन्ति मातरः ॥

etā u tyā uṣasaḥ ketumakrata pūrve ardhe rajaso bhānumañjate | niṣkṛṇvānā āyudhānīva dhṛṣṇavaḥ prati gāvo'ruṣīryanti mātaraḥ ||

These divinities of the morning have spread light (over the world); they make manifest the light in the eastern portion of the firmament, brightening all things, like warriors burnishing their weapons; the radiant and progressing mothers (of the earth), they travel daily (on their course).

उदपप्तन्नरुणा भानवो वृथा स्वायुजो अरुषीर्गा अयुक्षत । अक्रन्नुषासो वयुनानि पूर्वथा रुशन्तं भानुमरुषीरशिश्रयुः ॥

udapaptannaruṇā bhānavo vṛthā svāyujo aruṣīrgā ayukṣata | akrannuṣāso vayunāni pūrvathā ruśantaṃ bhānumaruṣīraśiśrayuḥ ||

Their purple rays have readily shot upwards; they have yoked the easily-yoked and ruddy kine (to their car); the deities of the dawn have restored, as of yore, the consciousness (of sentient creatures), and bright-rayed have attended upon the glorious sun.

अर्चन्ति नारीरपसो न विष्टिभिः समानेन योजनेना परावतः । इषं वहन्तीः सुकृते सुदानवे विश्वेदह यजमानाय सुन्वते ॥

arcanti nārīrapaso na viṣṭibhiḥ samānena yojanenā parāvataḥ | iṣaṃ vahantīḥ sukṛte sudānave viśvedaha yajamānāya sunvate ||

The feminine le leaders (of the morning) illuminate with their inherent radiance the remotest parts (of the heaven), with a simultaneous effort, like warriors (with their shining arms in the van of battle), bringing every kind of food to the performer of good works, to the bountiful, and to the worshipper who presents libations.

अधि पेशांसि वपते नृतूरिवापोर्णुते वक्ष उस्रेव बर्जहम् । ज्योतिर्विश्वस्मै भुवनाय कृण्वती गावो न व्रजं व्युषा आवर्तमः ॥

adhi peśāṃsi vapate nṛtūrivāporṇute vakṣa usreva barjaham | jyotirviśvasmai bhuvanāya kṛṇvatī gāvo na vrajaṃ vyuṣā āvartamaḥ ||

Uṣas cuts off the accusative ulated (glooms), as a barber (cuts off the hair); she bares her bosom as a cow yields her udder (to the milker); and, as cattle hasten to their pastures, she speeds to the east, and shedding light upon all the world, dissipates the darkness.

प्रत्यर्ची रुशदस्या अदर्शि वि तिष्ठते बाधते कृष्णमभ्वम् । स्वरुं न पेशो विदथेष्वञ्जञ्चित्रं दिवो दुहिता भानुमश्रेत् ॥

pratyarcī ruśadasyā adarśi vi tiṣṭhate bādhate kṛṣṇamabhvam | svaruṃ na peśo vidatheṣvañjañcitraṃ divo duhitā bhānumaśret ||

Her brilliant light is first seen towards (the east); it spreads and disperses the thick darkness; she anoints her beauty as the priests anoint the sacrificial food in sacrifices; the daughter of the sky awaits the glorious sun.

अतारिष्म तमसस्पारमस्योषा उच्छन्ती वयुना कृणोति । श्रिये छन्दो न स्मयते विभाती सुप्रतीका सौमनसायाजीगः ॥

atāriṣma tamasaspāramasyoṣā ucchantī vayunā kṛṇoti | śriye chando na smayate vibhātī supratīkā saumanasāyājīgaḥ ||

We have crossed over the boundary of darkness. Uṣas restores the consciousness (of living beings); bright-shining, she smiles, like a flatterer to obtain favour, and, lovely in all her radiance, she has swallowed, for our delight the darkness.

भास्वती नेत्री सूनृतानां दिवः स्तवे दुहिता गोतमेभिः । प्रजावतो नृवतो अश्वबुध्यानुषो गोअग्राँ उप मासि वाजान् ॥

bhāsvatī netrī sūnṛtānāṃ divaḥ stave duhitā gotamebhiḥ | prajāvato nṛvato aśvabudhyānuṣo goagrā~ upa māsi vājān ||

The brilliant daughter of the sky, the exciter of plural asant voices, is praised by the descendants of Gotama. Uṣas, grant us food associated with progeny and dependants, and distinguished by horses and cattle.

उषस्तमश्यां यशसं सुवीरं दासप्रवर्गं रयिमश्वबुध्यम् । सुदंससा श्रवसा या विभासि वाजप्रसूता सुभगे बृहन्तम् ॥

uṣastamaśyāṃ yaśasaṃ suvīraṃ dāsapravargaṃ rayimaśvabudhyam | sudaṃsasā śravasā yā vibhāsi vājaprasūtā subhage bṛhantam ||

May I obtain, Uṣas, that ample wealth with confers fame, posterity, troops of slaves, and is characterized by horses; which you, who abount in riches and are the giver of food, display, (when gratified) by hymns and holy sacrifices.

विश्वानि देवी भुवनाभिचक्ष्या प्रतीची चक्षुरुर्विया वि भाति । विश्वं जीवं चरसे बोधयन्ती विश्वस्य वाचमविदन्मनायोः ॥

viśvāni devī bhuvanābhicakṣyā pratīcī cakṣururviyā vi bhāti | viśvaṃ jīvaṃ carase bodhayantī viśvasya vācamavidanmanāyoḥ ||

The divine (Uṣas), having lighted up the whole world, spreads, expanding with her radiance, towards the west, arousing all living creatures to their labours; she hears the speech of all endowed with thought.

पुनःपुनर्जायमाना पुराणी समानं वर्णमभि शुम्भमाना । श्वघ्नीव कृत्नुर्विज आमिनाना मर्तस्य देवी जरयन्त्यायुः ॥

punaḥpunarjāyamānā purāṇī samānaṃ varṇamabhi śumbhamānā | śvaghnīva kṛtnurvija āminānā martasya devī jarayantyāyuḥ ||

The divine and ancient Uṣas, born again and again and bright with unchanging hues, wastes away the life of a mortal, like the wife of a hunter cutting up and dividing the birds.

व्यूर्ण्वती दिवो अन्ताँ अबोध्यप स्वसारं सनुतर्युयोति । प्रमिनती मनुष्या युगानि योषा जारस्य चक्षसा वि भाति ॥

vyūrṇvatī divo antā~ abodhyapa svasāraṃ sanutaryuyoti | praminatī manuṣyā yugāni yoṣā jārasya cakṣasā vi bhāti ||

She has been seen illuminating the boundaries of the sky, and driving into disappearance the spontaneously-retiring (night); wearing away the ages of the human race, she shines with light like the bride of the sun.

पशून्न चित्रा सुभगा प्रथाना सिन्धुर्न क्षोद उर्विया व्यश्वैत् । अमिनती दैव्यानि व्रतानि सूर्यस्य चेति रश्मिभिर्दृशाना ॥

paśūnna citrā subhagā prathānā sindhurna kṣoda urviyā vyaśvait | aminatī daivyāni vratāni sūryasya ceti raśmibhirdṛśānā ||

The affluent and adorable Uṣas has sent her rays abroad, as (a cowherd drives) the cattle (to pasture), and spreads expansive, like flowing water; she is beheld associated with the rays of the sun, unimpeding sacred ceremonies.

उषस्तच्चित्रमा भरास्मभ्यं वाजिनीवति । येन तोकं च तनयं च धामहे ॥

uṣastaccitramā bharāsmabhyaṃ vājinīvati | yena tokaṃ ca tanayaṃ ca dhāmahe ||

Uṣas, possessor of food, bring us that various wealth by which we may sustain sons and grandsons.

उषो अद्येह गोमत्यश्वावति विभावरि । रेवदस्मे व्युच्छ सूनृतावति ॥

uṣo adyeha gomatyaśvāvati vibhāvari | revadasme vyuccha sūnṛtāvati ||

Luminous Uṣas, possessor of cows and horses, true of speech, dawn here today upon this (ceremony), that is to bring us wealth.

युक्ष्वा हि वाजिनीवत्यश्वाँ अद्यारुणाँ उषः । अथा नो विश्वा सौभगान्या वह ॥

yukṣvā hi vājinīvatyaśvā~ adyāruṇā~ uṣaḥ | athā no viśvā saubhagānyā vaha ||

Possessor of food, Uṣas, yoke, indeed, today your purple steeds and bring to us all good things.

अश्विना वर्तिरस्मदा गोमद्दस्रा हिरण्यवत् । अर्वाग्रथं समनसा नि यच्छतम् ॥

aśvinā vartirasmadā gomaddasrā hiraṇyavat | arvāgrathaṃ samanasā ni yacchatam ||

Aśvins, destroyers of foes, turn with favourable intentions your chariot towards our abode, which contains cattle and gold.

यावित्था श्लोकमा दिवो ज्योतिर्जनाय चक्रथुः । आ न ऊर्जं वहतमश्विना युवम् ॥

yāvitthā ślokamā divo jyotirjanāya cakrathuḥ | ā na ūrjaṃ vahatamaśvinā yuvam ||

Aśvins, who have sent adorable light from heaven to man, bring us strength.

एह देवा मयोभुवा दस्रा हिरण्यवर्तनी । उषर्बुधो वहन्तु सोमपीतये ॥

eha devā mayobhuvā dasrā hiraṇyavartanī | uṣarbudho vahantu somapītaye ||

May the steeds awakened at dawn bring hither, to drink the Soma, the divine Aśvins, who are the givers o fhappiness, the destroyers of foes, seated in a golden chariot.
