10.10.1
ओ चि॒त्सखा॑यं स॒ख्या व॑वृत्यां ति॒रः पु॒रू चि॑दर्ण॒वं ज॑ग॒न्वान् ।
पि॒तुर्नपा॑त॒मा द॑धीत वे॒धा अधि॒ क्षमि॑ प्रत॒रं दीध्या॑नः ॥
He who returns in friendship to his companion, having crossed the ocean many times, may the wise one establish the grandson of the father high in the realm, shining forth far.
10.10.2
न ते॒ सखा॑ स॒ख्यं व॑ष्ट्ये॒तत्सल॑क्ष्मा॒ यद्विषु॑रूपा॒ भवा॑ति ।
म॒हस्पु॒त्रासो॒ असु॑रस्य वी॒रा दि॒वो ध॒र्तार॑ उर्वि॒या परि॑ ख्यन् ॥
That friend does not choose your friendship, since he has the same mark yet becomes of diverse form. The sons of the great Asura are heroes, supporters of the wide sky; may they look around.
10.10.3
उ॒शन्ति॑ घा॒ ते अ॒मृता॑स ए॒तदेक॑स्य चित्त्य॒जसं॒ मर्त्य॑स्य ।
नि ते॒ मनो॒ मन॑सि धाय्य॒स्मे जन्युः॒ पति॑स्त॒न्व॑मा वि॑विश्याः ॥
The immortals desire this, the renunciation of a single mortal. Your mind has been placed in my mind; husband of the wife, O lord, enter into my body.
10.10.4
न यत्पु॒रा च॑कृ॒मा कद्ध॑ नू॒नमृ॒ता वद॑न्तो॒ अनृ॑तं रपेम ।
ग॒न्ध॒र्वो अ॒प्स्वप्या॑ च॒ योषा॒ सा नो॒ नाभिः॑ पर॒मं जा॒मि तन्नौ॑ ॥
What we formerly did, or what we now do while speaking truth, may we not commit falsehood. The Gandharva is in the waters, and his wife belongs to the waters; she is our navel, the supreme kinship, the bond of us two.
10.10.5
गर्भे॒ नु नौ॑ जनि॒ता दम्प॑ती कर्दे॒वस्त्वष्टा॑ सवि॒ता वि॒श्वरू॑पः ।
नकि॑रस्य॒ प्र मि॑नन्ति व्र॒तानि॒ वेद॑ नाव॒स्य पृ॑थि॒वी उ॒त द्यौः ॥
In the womb the begetter, the pair, the god Tvaṣṭar, Savitar, the one of all forms, made us two. No one violates their laws; earth and sky know this order of us two.
10.10.6
को अ॒स्य वे॑द प्रथ॒मस्याह्नः॒ क ईं॑ ददर्श॒ क इ॒ह प्र वो॑चत् ।
बृ॒हन्मि॒त्रस्य॒ वरु॑णस्य॒ धाम॒ कदु॑ ब्रव आहनो॒ वीच्या॒ नॄन् ॥
Who knows this of the first day? Who has seen it? Who here will declare it? Where is the great abode of Mitra and Varuṇa? O slayer, who will tell men of it by the wave?
10.10.7
य॒मस्य॑ मा य॒म्यं॑ काम॒ आग॑न्त्समा॒ने योनौ॑ सह॒शेय्या॑य ।
जा॒येव॒ पत्ये॑ त॒न्वं॑ रिरिच्यां॒ वि चि॑द्वृहेव॒ रथ्ये॑व च॒क्रा ॥
Desire for me has come toward Yama, Yami, to lie together in the same womb. Like a wife to her husband, may I open my body, and like the wheels of a chariot, may I be separated.
10.10.8
न ति॑ष्ठन्ति॒ न नि मि॑षन्त्ये॒ते दे॒वानां॒ स्पश॑ इ॒ह ये चर॑न्ति ।
अ॒न्येन॒ मदा॑हनो याहि॒ तूयं॒ तेन॒ वि वृ॑ह॒ रथ्ये॑व च॒क्रा ॥
These spies of the gods who move about here neither stand still nor blink. O destroyer, go swiftly away from me with another; be separated from him, like the wheels of a chariot.
10.10.9
रात्री॑भिरस्मा॒ अह॑भिर्दशस्ये॒त्सूर्य॑स्य॒ चक्षु॒र्मुहु॒रुन्मि॑मीयात् ।
दि॒वा पृ॑थि॒व्या मि॑थु॒ना सब॑न्धू य॒मीर्य॒मस्य॑ बिभृया॒दजा॑मि ॥
With the nights may she shine for him; may the sun's eye measure upward again and again. May day and earth, the bound pair, keep Yama's Yamī from unkinned union (ajāmi).
10.10.10
आ घा॒ ता ग॑च्छा॒नुत्त॑रा यु॒गानि॒ यत्र॑ जा॒मयः॑ कृ॒णव॒न्नजा॑मि ।
उप॑ बर्बृहि वृष॒भाय॑ बा॒हुम॒न्यमि॑च्छस्व सुभगे॒ पतिं॒ मत् ॥
Indeed may they go on to later ages, where kinswomen make unkinned union (ajāmi). Raise your arm for the bull; O fortunate one, seek another husband than me.
10.10.11
किं भ्राता॑स॒द्यद॑ना॒थं भवा॑ति॒ किमु॒ स्वसा॒ यन्निरृ॑तिर्नि॒गच्छा॑त् ।
काम॑मूता ब॒ह्वे॑तद्र॑पामि त॒न्वा॑ मे त॒न्वं॑ सं पि॑पृग्धि ॥
What becomes of a brother who is unprotected? What becomes of a sister when Nirṛti, ruin, comes upon her? Born of desire, I suffer this much. Fill my body with my own body.
10.10.12
न वा उ॑ ते त॒न्वा॑ त॒न्वं॑ सं प॑पृच्यां पा॒पमा॑हु॒र्यः स्वसा॑रं नि॒गच्छा॑त् ।
अ॒न्येन॒ मत्प्र॒मुदः॑ कल्पयस्व॒ न ते॒ भ्राता॑ सुभगे वष्ट्ये॒तत् ॥
No, indeed I will not be joined in my body to your body. They say that whoever goes to a sister commits sin. Arrange it with another, away from me, for that joyless one. O fortunate one, your brother does not wish this.
10.10.13
ब॒तो ब॑तासि यम॒ नैव ते॒ मनो॒ हृद॑यं चाविदाम ।
अ॒न्या किल॒ त्वां क॒क्ष्ये॑व यु॒क्तं परि॑ ष्वजाते॒ लिबु॑जेव वृ॒क्षम् ॥
Alas, poor Yama, you are not so indeed; we have not known your mind and heart. Surely another woman embraces you, as a strap wraps a yoked chariot, as a creeper wraps a tree.
10.10.14
अ॒न्यमू॒ षु त्वं य॑म्य॒न्य उ॒ त्वां परि॑ ष्वजाते॒ लिबु॑जेव वृ॒क्षम् ।
तस्य॑ वा॒ त्वं मन॑ इ॒च्छा स वा॒ तवाधा॑ कृणुष्व सं॒विदं॒ सुभ॑द्राम् ॥
Desire another man well, O Yami; and another embraces you, as a creeper embraces a tree. Seek his mind, or let his mind be for you; then make a most auspicious accord with yourself.
