You carried Bhujyu, cast into the sea, across the waters with your swift, tireless, unwearied flying horses, Ashvins, saving him with your jaws.

Now hear my call, O youthful ones; come to the path, Ashvins, full of strength. Grant us treasures, and let us grow in abundance; always protect us with blessings.

Come to us, Ashvins, all-beneficent; your place on earth has been declared. Like a swift horse, Shunaprishta stood firm when you established the seat for the steadfast.

That favor of yours, Ashvins, is ready to help; even the warmth of man in his home assists. He who guides you across oceans and rivers, even with a well-yoked team, attains this.

The places you have set, Ashvins, in the heavens, among herbs, and in the fields, rest on the mountain's summit; you carry them for the worshipper.

That sacrifice of yours, O Nasatyas, with offerings and composed hymns, becomes noble. Come forth for the best, O Vasistha; these hymns are recited for you both.

This thought, this song, Ashvins, may you mighty ones accept with joy. These hymns are newly composed for you; always protect us with blessings.

Your chariot, Ashvins, is royal, three-poled, rich in wealth and cattle. Come to us with it, O Nasatyas, for whatever universal benefit you seek.
युवं च्यवानं जरसोऽमुमुक्तं नि पेदव ऊहथुराशुमश्वम् । निरंहसस्तमस स्पर्तमत्रिं नि जाहुषं शिथिरे धातमन्तः
You freed Cyavana from old age, carried him with your swift horse. You rescued Atri from distress and darkness, and restored Jahusha from the cold within the house.

Come, O Nasatyas, with your chariot rich in cattle, drawn by horses, shining in the forefront. All your attendants gather around you, adorned with splendid beauty in form.

The praises for the Ashvins rise up, the hymns and the divine dawns. The priest calls to you, O Nasatyas, inviting the two worlds, the sacred seats, with his voice.

The dawns spread out, O Ashvins, and the poets carry your hymns. The god Savitar has raised his radiance high; the great fires blaze with kindling.

The beloved priest sits among men, O Nasatyas, who worships and honors you. Ashvins, eat the honey, come near; I speak to you, eager in the assemblies.

These dawns, O Ashvins, call to you in heaven. I call you for help, O powerful ones; you go from people to people.

You, O men, give splendid food and stir those who speak kindly. Bring your chariot near with united mind, drink the sweet soma.

Come, adorn yourselves, drink the honey, O Ashvins. The milk, the nourishing drink, O mighty ones, do not harm us, come.
