Bibliotheca Polyglotta

1 AGNI, the bright face of the Dawns, is shining; the singers' pious voices have ascended. Borne on your chariot, Aśvins, turn you hither and come unto our full and rich libation.

ná saṃskr̥tám prá mimīto gámiṣṭhā ánti nūnám aśvínópastutehá |
dívābhipitve ávasā́gamiṣṭhā práty ávartiṃ dāśúṣe śámbhaviṣṭhā ||

2 Most frequent guests, they scorn not what is ready: even now the lauded Aśvins are beside us. With promptest aid they come at morn and evening, the worshipper's most blessed guards from trouble.

utā́ yātaṃ saṃgavé prātár áhno madhyáṃdina úditā sū́riyasya |
dívā náktam ávasā śáṃtamena nédā́nīm pītír aśvínā́ tatāna ||

3 Yea, come at milking-time, at early morning, at noon of day and when the Sun is setting, By day, by night, with favour most auspicious. Not only now the draught hath drawn the Aśvins.

idáṃ hí vām pradívi sthā́nam óka imé gr̥hā́ aśvinedáṃ duroṇám |
ā́ no divó br̥hatáḥ párvatād ā́ adbhyó yātam íṣam ū́rjaṃ váhantā ||

4 For this place, Aśvins, was of old your dwelling, these were your houses, this your habitation. Come to us from high heaven and from the mountain. Come from the waters bringing food and vigour.

sám aśvínor ávasā nū́tanena mayobhúvā supráṇītī gamema |
ā́ no rayíṃ vahatam ótá vīrā́n ā́ víśvāni amr̥tā saúbhagāni ||

5 May we obtain the Aśvins' newest favour, and gain their health-bestowing happy guidance. Bring riches hither unto us, and heroes, and all felicity and joy, Immortals!
