1 WHETHER, O Aśvins, ye this day be far remote or near at hand, In many spots or in mid-air, come hither, Lords of ample wealth.

pári vām aruṣā́ váyo ghr̥ṇā́ varanta ātápaḥ || 
5 When Sūrya mounted on your car that rolls for ever rapidly, Birds of red hue were round about and burning splendours compassed you.

gharmáṃ yád vām arepásaṃ nā́satyāsnā́ bhuraṇyáti || 
6 Atri bethinks himself of you, O Heroes, with a friendly mind, What time, Nāsatyas, with his mouth he stirs the spotless flame for you. 
ugró vāṃ kakuhó yayíḥ śr̥ṇvé yā́meṣu saṃtaníḥ |
yád vāṃ dáṃsobhir aśvinā átrir narāvavártati || 
7 Strong is your swiftly moving steed, famed his exertion in the course When by your great deeds, Aśvins, Chiefs, Atri is brought to us again. 
mádhva ū ṣú madhūyuvā rúdrā síṣakti pipyúṣī |
yát samudrā́ti párṣathaḥ pakvā́ḥ pŕ̥kṣo bharanta vām || 
8 Lovers of sweetness, Rudras, she who streams with sweetness waits on you. When ye have travelled through the seas men bring you gifts of well-dressed food.

tā́ yā́man yāmahū́tamā yā́mann ā́ mr̥̄ḷayáttamā+ || 
9 Aśvins, with truth they call you Twain bestowers of felicity; At sacrifice most prompt to hear, most gracious ye at sacrifice. 
imā́ bráhmāṇi várdhanā aśvíbhyāṃ santu śáṃtamā |
yā́ tákṣāma ráthām̐ iva ávocāma br̥hán námaḥ || 
10 Most pleasing to the Aśvins be these prayers which magnify their might, Which we have fashioned, even as cars high reverence have we spoken forth.
