Asvins

2Longed for, most Indra−like, mighty, most Marut−like, most w6nderful in deed, car−borne, best charioteers, Bring your full chariot hither heaped with liquid sweet: thereon, ye Mvins, come to him who offers gifts.

3What make ye there, ye Mighty? Wherefore linger ye with folk who, offering not, are held in high estee m? Pass over them; make ye the niggard's life decay: give light unto the singer eloquent in praise.

4Crunch up on. every side the dogs who bark at us: slay ye our foes, O Asvins this ye understand. Make wealthy every word of him who praises you: accept with favour, both Nasatyas, this my laud.

5Ye made for Tugra's son amid the water−floods that animated ship with wings to fly withal, Whereon with God−devoted mind ye brought him forth, and fled with easy flight from out the mighty sur ge.

6Four ships most welcome in the midst of ocean, urged by the Asvins, save the son of Tugra, Him who was cast down headlong in the waters, plunged in the thick inevitable darkness.

7What tree was that which stood fixed in surrounding sea to which the son of Tugra supplicating clung? Like twigs, of which some winged creature may take hold, ye, Asvins, bore him off safely to your renown .

8Welcome to you be this the hymn of praises uttered by Manas, O Nasatyas, Heroes, From this our gathering where we offer Soma. May we find strengthening food in full abundance.
