ता घा ता भद्रा उषसः पुरासुरभिष्टिद्युम्ना ऋतजातसत्याः । यास्वीजानः शशमान उक्थै स्तुवञ्छंसन्द्रविणं सद्य आप
Those indeed, those auspicious Dawns of old, are fragrant, glorious, born of truth and reality; in whom the singer, praising with hymns, quickly attains abundant wealth.
ता आ चरन्ति समना पुरस्तात्समानतः समना पप्रथानाः । ऋतस्य देवीः सदसो बुधाना गवां न सर्गा उषसो जरन्ते
They move together, united from the front, united in purpose, spreading together; the goddesses of truth, awakening from their seat, like the streams of cows, the Dawns stir forth.
ता इन्न्वेव समना समानीरमीतवर्णा उषसश्चरन्ति । गूहन्तीरभ्वमसितं रुशद्भिः शुक्रास्तनूभिः शुचयो रुचानाः
They, like waves, move together, united in color, the Dawns advance; hiding the darkness with their bright bodies, pure, radiant, shining with their forms.
रयिं दिवो दुहितरो विभातीः प्रजावन्तं यच्छतास्मासु देवीः । स्योनादा वः प्रतिबुध्यमानाः सुवीर्यस्य पतयः स्याम
O shining daughters of heaven, grant us wealth, full of offspring; may you, awakening from your pleasant abode, make us lords of noble strength.
तद्वो दिवो दुहितरो विभातीरुप ब्रुव उषसो यज्ञकेतुः । वयं स्याम यशसो जनेषु तद्द्यौश्च धत्तां पृथिवी च देवी
This, O shining daughters of heaven, I address to you, O Dawns, the sign of sacrifice; may we be renowned among people, and may heaven and earth, the goddesses, grant this.
प्रति ष्या सूनरी जनी व्युच्छन्ती परि स्वसुः । दिवो अदर्शि दुहिता
She, the radiant daughter, rises, awakening her sister; the daughter of heaven is seen.
अश्वेव चित्रारुषी माता गवामृतावरी । सखाभूदश्विनोरुषाः
Like a variegated, red mare among horses, the mother of cows, rich in milk, became a friend to the Ashvins, O Ushas.
उत सखास्यश्विनोरुत माता गवामसि । उतोषो वस्व ईशिषे
You are indeed the friend of the Ashvins, you are the mother of cows; you, O Ushas, are the mistress of wealth.
यावयद्द्वेषसं त्वा चिकित्वित्सूनृतावरि । प्रति स्तोमैरभुत्स्महि
You, wise one, who keeps away hatred, who is the bestower of fair speech, we have approached with songs of praise.
प्रति भद्रा अदृक्षत गवां सर्गा न रश्मयः । ओषा अप्रा उरु ज्रयः
The auspicious rays have appeared, like streams of cows; O Ushas, you have opened wide a broad space for living.
आपप्रुषी विभावरि व्यावर्ज्योतिषा तमः । उषो अनु स्वधामव
You, shining one, have filled the wide expanse, dispelling darkness with your light; O Ushas, you follow your own law.
आ द्यां तनोषि रश्मिभिरान्तरिक्षमुरु प्रियम् । उषः शुक्रेण शोचिषा
You stretch your rays to the sky, to the wide beloved midspace, O Ushas, with your bright radiance.
तद्देवस्य सवितुर्वार्यं महद्वृणीमहे असुरस्य प्रचेतसः । छर्दिर्येन दाशुषे यच्छति त्मना तन्नो महाँ उदयान्देवो अक्तुभिः
We choose that great gift of the god Savitar, the wise lord, by which he grants protection to the worshipper by his own power; may that great god bring us to the days with his lights.
दिवो धर्ता भुवनस्य प्रजापतिः पिशङ्गं द्रापिं प्रति मुञ्चते कविः । विचक्षणः प्रथयन्नापृणन्नुर्वजीजनत्सविता सुम्नमुक्थ्यम्
The supporter of heaven, the lord of beings, the sage puts on his tawny garment; the far-seeing one, spreading and filling, Savitar, has generated auspicious praise.
आप्रा रजांसि दिव्यानि पार्थिवा श्लोकं देवः कृणुते स्वाय धर्मणे । प्र बाहू अस्राक्सविता सवीमनि निवेशयन्प्रसुवन्नक्तुभिर्जगत्
He fills the celestial and earthly regions; the god makes his glory for his own order; Savitar has stretched out his arms at the impulse, establishing and setting in motion the world with the days.
अदाभ्यो भुवनानि प्रचाकशद्व्रतानि देवः सविताभि रक्षते । प्रास्राग्बाहू भुवनस्य प्रजाभ्यो धृतव्रतो महो अज्मस्य राजति
The god Savitar, unerring, has made the worlds shine; with his ordinances he protects the creatures; he has stretched out his arms for the beings, steadfast in his vow, he shines as king of the great path.
त्रिरन्तरिक्षं सविता महित्वना त्री रजांसि परिभुस्त्रीणि रोचना । तिस्रो दिवः पृथिवीस्तिस्र इन्वति त्रिभिर्व्रतैरभि नो रक्षति त्मना
Savitar, by his greatness, encompasses the threefold midspace, the three regions, the three lights; he rules over three heavens, three earths, three waters; with these three ordinances he protects us by his own power.
बृहत्सुम्नः प्रसवीता निवेशनो जगत स्थातुरुभयस्य यो वशी । स नो देवः सविता शर्म यच्छत्वस्मे क्षयाय त्रिवरूथमंहसः
The great-minded, all-fostering, establishing god, who is master of both the moving and the stationary, may that god Savitar grant us shelter, for our dwelling, a triple protection from harm.
आगन्देव ऋतुभिर्वर्धतु क्षयं दधातु नः सविता सुप्रजामिषम् । स नः क्षपाभिरहभिश्च जिन्वतु प्रजावन्तं रयिमस्मे समिन्वतु
May the god come with the seasons, may Savitar increase our home, grant us good offspring and food; may he quicken us with nights and days, may he bestow wealth with offspring upon us.
अभूद्देवः सविता वन्द्यो नु न इदानीमह्न उपवाच्यो नृभिः । वि यो रत्ना भजति मानवेभ्यः श्रेष्ठं नो अत्र द्रविणं यथा दधत्
The god Savitar has become worthy of praise; now, at this time of day, he is to be honored by men; he distributes treasures to mortals, may he grant us here the best wealth as he does.
देवेभ्यो हि प्रथमं यज्ञियेभ्योऽमृतत्वं सुवसि भागमुत्तमम् । आदिद्दामानं सवितर्व्यूर्णुषेऽनूचीना जीविता मानुषेभ्यः
For to the gods, the first and most worshipful, you, Savitar, bestow immortality, the highest share; from there you loosen the bonds, Savitar, for the living, granting lives to mortals.
अचित्ती यच्चकृमा दैव्ये जने दीनैर्दक्षैः प्रभूती पूरुषत्वता । देवेषु च सवितर्मानुषेषु च त्वं नो अत्र सुवतादनागसः
Whatever unconscious wrong we have done among the divine hosts, with feeble powers, through human weakness, among gods and among men, O Savitar, may you grant us sinlessness here.
न प्रमिये सवितुर्दैव्यस्य तद्यथा विश्वं भुवनं धारयिष्यति । यत्पृथिव्या वरिमन्ना स्वङ्गुरिर्वर्ष्मन्दिवः सुवति सत्यमस्य तत्
The measure of the divine Savitar cannot be surpassed, as he upholds all the world; whatever breadth of earth, or the space of the sky, he truly bestows that.
इन्द्रज्येष्ठान्बृहद्भ्यः पर्वतेभ्यः क्षयाँ एभ्यः सुवसि पस्त्यावतः । यथायथा पतयन्तो वियेमिर एवैव तस्थुः सवितः सवाय ते
From the mountains, great and Indra-favored, from the dwellings, you, Savitar, bestow prosperity on the household; as the birds fly forth in various ways, so, Savitar, your impulses remain steadfast.
ये ते त्रिरहन्सवितः सवासो दिवेदिवे सौभगमासुवन्ति । इन्द्रो द्यावापृथिवी सिन्धुरद्भिरादित्यैर्नो अदितिः शर्म यंसत्
Those companions of yours, O Savitar, who, three times each day, swiftly bring good fortune—may Indra, Heaven and Earth, the river Sindhu with the waters, and Aditi with the Adityas, grant us shelter.
को वस्त्राता वसवः को वरूता द्यावाभूमी अदिते त्रासीथां नः । सहीयसो वरुण मित्र मर्तात्को वोऽध्वरे वरिवो धाति देवाः
Who among you, O Vasus, is the giver of garments? Who is the protector? May Heaven and Earth, O Aditi, keep us from fear. O mighty Varuna and Mitra, who among you gods grants passage at the sacrifice for mortals?
प्र ये धामानि पूर्व्याण्यर्चान्वि यदुच्छान्वियोतारो अमूराः । विधातारो वि ते दधुरजस्रा ऋतधीतयो रुरुचन्त दस्माः
Those who, from the beginning, have set forth the ancient ordinances—when they ascend, those unfailing ones, the wise, have established the everlasting laws; the wondrous ones shine with righteous thoughts.
प्र पस्त्यामदितिं सिन्धुमर्कैः स्वस्तिमीळे सख्याय देवीम् । उभे यथा नो अहनी निपात उषासानक्ता करतामदब्धे
With hymns I praise Aditi, the river Sindhu, for well-being and friendship, the divine one. As both Day and Night fall upon us, may the undeceivable Ushas and Night act for our benefit.
व्यर्यमा वरुणश्चेति पन्थामिषस्पतिः सुवितं गातुमग्निः । इन्द्राविष्णू नृवदु षु स्तवाना शर्म नो यन्तममवद्वरूथम्
Aryaman and Varuna have stretched out the paths; the Lord of food, Agni, leads to good fortune. O Indra and Vishnu, praised among men, bring us shelter and protection, and come to our aid.
आ पर्वतस्य मरुतामवांसि देवस्य त्रातुरव्रि भगस्य । पात्पतिर्जन्यादंहसो नो मित्रो मित्रियादुत न उरुष्येत्
From the mountain, may the protections of the Maruts, of the god Bhaga the savior, come to us. May Mitra, the lord, guard us from harm born among men, and may he not let us be oppressed.
