आ घा योषेव सूनर्युषा याति प्रभुञ्जती । जरयन्ती वृजनं पद्वदीयत उत्पातयति पक्षिणः
Like a young woman, O Dawn, you come forth, distributing gifts; making the people grow old, you move with your steps, you awaken the birds.
वि या सृजति समनं व्यर्थिनः पदं न वेत्योदती । वयो नकिष्टे पप्तिवांस आसते व्युष्टौ वाजिनीवति
She scatters the assembly, she opens the ways, shining like a path, she does not go astray; birds that would fly do not sit still at your dawning, O bringer of horses.
एषायुक्त परावतः सूर्यस्योदयनादधि । शतं रथेभिः सुभगोषा इयं वि यात्यभि मानुषान्
She is yoked far away, at the rising of the sun; with a hundred chariots, this fortunate Dawn moves forth, shining among men.
विश्वमस्या नानाम चक्षसे जगज्ज्योतिष्कृणोति सूनरी । अप द्वेषो मघोनी दुहिता दिव उषा उच्छदप स्रिधः
For all to see, she makes the world visible, the daughter of the sun brings light; O generous one, daughter of heaven, Dawn, drive away hatred and darkness.
उष आ भाहि भानुना चन्द्रेण दुहितर्दिवः । आवहन्ती भूर्यस्मभ्यं सौभगं व्युच्छन्ती दिविष्टिषु
Dawn, shine forth with your radiance, O lovely daughter of heaven; bringing abundant good fortune to us, revealing yourself among the dwellings.
विश्वस्य हि प्राणनं जीवनं त्वे वि यदुच्छसि सूनरि । सा नो रथेन बृहता विभावरि श्रुधि चित्रामघे हवम्
For you are the breath and life of all, O bringer of light, when you arise; so with your great chariot, O radiant Dawn, hear our splendid, generous invocation.
उषो वाजं हि वंस्व यश्चित्रो मानुषे जने । तेना वह सुकृतो अध्वराँ उप ये त्वा गृणन्ति वह्नयः
O Dawn, indeed bring us strength, for you are resplendent among humankind; with that, carry the offerings of the pious to the rituals, to those fires that praise you.
विश्वान्देवाँ आ वह सोमपीतयेऽन्तरिक्षादुषस्त्वम् । सास्मासु धा गोमदश्वावदुक्थ्यमुषो वाजं सुवीर्यम्
Bring all the gods here, O Dawn, for the drinking of Soma from the midspace; grant us, with that, wealth of cattle and horses, and worthy praise, O Dawn, strength and heroic power.
यस्या रुशन्तो अर्चयः प्रति भद्रा अदृक्षत । सा नो रयिं विश्ववारं सुपेशसमुषा ददातु सुग्म्यम्
She whose bright rays, shining, have appeared for our good—may that Dawn grant us all-encompassing, beautiful wealth, easy to attain.
ये चिद्धि त्वामृषयः पूर्व ऊतये जुहूरेऽवसे महि । सा न स्तोमाँ अभि गृणीहि राधसोषः शुक्रेण शोचिषा
Even those ancient sages invoked you, O Dawn, for help and great support; so now accept our praises, O Dawn, with your bright radiance, for generous gifts.
उषो यदद्य भानुना वि द्वारावृणवो दिवः । प्र नो यच्छतादवृकं पृथु च्छर्दिः प्र देवि गोमतीरिषः
When today, O Dawn, you open the doors of heaven with your light, may you grant us unfailing, wide protection, O goddess, and abundant, cattle-rich blessings.
सं नो राया बृहता विश्वपेशसा मिमिक्ष्वा समिळाभिरा । सं द्युम्नेन विश्वतुरोषो महि सं वाजैर्वाजिनीवति
Unite us with great, all-beautiful wealth, with gatherings, with glory, O Dawn; unite us with all-conquering might, with strength, O bringer of prizes.
उषो भद्रेभिरा गहि दिवश्चिद्रोचनादधि । वहन्त्वरुणप्सव उप त्वा सोमिनो गृहम्
O Dawn, come with blessings, from the very shining of heaven; the bearers of Varuṇa bring you, the Soma-offerers welcome you to their home.
सुपेशसं सुखं रथं यमध्यस्था उषस्त्वम् । तेना सुश्रवसं जनं प्रावाद्य दुहितर्दिवः
The splendid, comfortable chariot in which you stand, O Dawn—by that, lead the renowned people forward, O daughter of heaven.
वयश्चित्ते पतत्रिणो द्विपच्चतुष्पदर्जुनि । उषः प्रारन्नृतूँरनु दिवो अन्तेभ्यस्परि
Birds in your mind, winged ones, bipeds and quadrupeds, O Dawn, have awakened, following the seasons, at the edge of heaven.
व्युच्छन्ती हि रश्मिभिर्विश्वमाभासि रोचनम् । तां त्वामुषर्वसूयवो गीर्भिः कण्वा अहूषत
For as you shine forth with your rays, you illumine all the realms; you, O Dawn, the Kanvas have called with their songs, longing for wealth.
उदु त्यं जातवेदसं देवं वहन्ति केतवः । दृशे विश्वाय सूर्यम्
The rays carry up that god, Jātavedas, the Sun, for all to see.
अप त्ये तायवो यथा नक्षत्रा यन्त्यक्तुभिः । सूराय विश्वचक्षसे
As those rays, like thieves, depart as the stars with the night, they go to the Sun, the all-seeing one.
अदृश्रमस्य केतवो वि रश्मयो जनाँ अनु । भ्राजन्तो अग्नयो यथा
The rays of him whom we have not seen spread out among the people, shining like fires.
तरणिर्विश्वदर्शतो ज्योतिष्कृदसि सूर्य । विश्वमा भासि रोचनम्
Swiftly moving, all-seeing, you are the maker of light, O Sun; you illumine all the realms.
प्रत्यङ्देवानां विशः प्रत्यङ्ङुदेषि मानुषान् । प्रत्यङ्विश्वं स्वर्दृशे
You turn towards the gatherings of the gods, you turn towards the gatherings of men, you turn towards all to be seen.
येना पावक चक्षसा भुरण्यन्तं जनाँ अनु । त्वं वरुण पश्यसि
With that pure eye, O radiant one, you behold all people; you, O Varuṇa, see.
वि द्यामेषि रजस्पृथ्वहा मिमानो अक्तुभिः । पश्यञ्जन्मानि सूर्य
You traverse the sky, measuring the vast expanse with your rays, observing the births, O Sun.
सप्त त्वा हरितो रथे वहन्ति देव सूर्य । शोचिष्केशं विचक्षण
Seven bay steeds carry you in your chariot, O god Sun, you with fiery hair, all-seeing.
अयुक्त सप्त शुन्ध्युवः सूरो रथस्य नप्त्यः । ताभिर्याति स्वयुक्तिभिः
The Sun, offspring of the chariot, has yoked the seven shining mares; with these self-harnessed ones he journeys onward.
उद्वयं तमसस्परि ज्योतिष्पश्यन्त उत्तरम् । देवं देवत्रा सूर्यमगन्म ज्योतिरुत्तमम्
Rising above the darkness, we behold the higher light; we have reached the god among gods, the Sun, the supreme light.
उद्यन्नद्य मित्रमह आरोहन्नुत्तरां दिवम् । हृद्रोगं मम सूर्य हरिमाणं च नाशय
Rising today, O Sun, friend of all, ascending the highest heaven, remove my heart's disease and the yellow hue from me.
शुकेषु मे हरिमाणं रोपणाकासु दध्मसि । अथो हारिद्रवेषु मे हरिमाणं नि दध्मसि
Into the white vessels we place the yellow hue; and now into the vessels of turmeric we lay the yellow hue for me.
उदगादयमादित्यो विश्वेन सहसा सह । द्विषन्तं मह्यं रन्धयन्मो अहं द्विषते रधम्
This Sun has risen with all-conquering might; driving away my adversary, let me not fall into the power of my foe.
अभि त्यं मेषं पुरुहूतमृग्मियमिन्द्रं गीर्भिर्मदता वस्वो अर्णवम् । यस्य द्यावो न विचरन्ति मानुषा भुजे मंहिष्ठमभि विप्रमर्चत
With hymns let us exalt Indra, the ram, much-invoked, worthy of song, the oceanic lord of wealth; whom, like the heavens, men cannot encompass, whose might is greatest—praise him, O inspired ones.
