10.40.1
रथं॒ यान्तं॒ कुह॒ को ह॑ वां नरा॒ प्रति॑ द्यु॒मन्तं॑ सुवि॒ताय॑ भूषति ।
प्रा॒त॒र्यावा॑णं वि॒भ्वं॑ वि॒शेवि॑शे॒ वस्तो॑र्वस्तो॒र्वह॑मानं धि॒या शमि॑ ॥
Where are you, riding on your chariot? O men, who adorns the shining chariot for your welfare? You who come at dawn, all-pervading, bearing it to every house each day, with thought and with sacrifice.
10.40.2
कुह॑ स्विद्दो॒षा कुह॒ वस्तो॑र॒श्विना॒ कुहा॑भिपि॒त्वं क॑रतः॒ कुहो॑षतुः ।
को वां॑ शयु॒त्रा वि॒धवे॑व दे॒वरं॒ मर्यं॒ न योषा॑ कृणुते स॒धस्थ॒ आ ॥
Where were you at night, and where at dawn, O Aśvins? What union do you two make, where did you two dwell? Who holds you in the bed, as a widow holds her brother-in-law, as a wife holds her husband in the seat beside her?
10.40.3
प्रा॒तर्ज॑रेथे जर॒णेव॒ काप॑या॒ वस्तो॑र्वस्तोर्यज॒ता ग॑च्छथो गृ॒हम् ।
कस्य॑ ध्व॒स्रा भ॑वथः॒ कस्य॑ वा नरा राजपु॒त्रेव॒ सव॒नाव॑ गच्छथः ॥
At dawn you two are roused, like old men with decrepitude; to each dwelling, O worshipful ones, you two go. Whose swift ones are you, or whose are you, O men? Like royal princes coming to their sacrifices, you two come down.
10.40.4
यु॒वां मृ॒गेव॑ वार॒णा मृ॑ग॒ण्यवो॑ दो॒षा वस्तो॑र्ह॒विषा॒ नि ह्व॑यामहे ।
यु॒वं होत्रा॑मृतु॒था जुह्व॑ते न॒रेषं॒ जना॑य वहथः शुभस्पती ॥
You two, like deer and elephants seeking their prey, we call down at night with the oblation of our dwelling. According to the seasons you two bring food to the one who offers, O men; O bright lords, you two bring nourishment for the people.
10.40.5
यु॒वां ह॒ घोषा॒ पर्य॑श्विना य॒ती राज्ञ॑ ऊचे दुहि॒ता पृ॒च्छे वां॑ नरा ।
भू॒तं मे॒ अह्न॑ उ॒त भू॑तम॒क्तवेऽश्वा॑वते र॒थिने॑ शक्त॒मर्व॑ते ॥
Of you two, O Aśvins, Ghoṣā went around and spoke to the king, being his daughter, to inquire; O men, be for me by day and be for me by night; be able for the chariot-rider possessed of horses, for the steed.
10.40.6
यु॒वं क॒वी ष्ठः॒ पर्य॑श्विना॒ रथं॒ विशो॒ न कुत्सो॑ जरि॒तुर्न॑शायथः ।
यु॒वोर्ह॒ मक्षा॒ पर्य॑श्विना॒ मधु॑ आ॒सा भ॑रत निष्कृ॒तं न योष॑णा ॥
You two are wise poets, O Aśvins; you go around the chariot, as you protect the peoples for the singer Kutsa; the swift sweetness of you two, O Aśvins, comes with the mouth, as a purified woman brings a fine gift.
10.40.7
यु॒वं ह॑ भु॒ज्युं यु॒वम॑श्विना॒ वशं॑ यु॒वं शि॒ञ्जार॑मु॒शना॒मुपा॑रथुः ।
यु॒वोररा॑वा॒ परि॑ स॒ख्यमा॑सते यु॒वोर॒हमव॑सा सु॒म्नमा च॑के ॥
O Aśvins, you two brought Bhujyu, you brought Vaśa, you brought Śiñjāra and Uśanā near and carried them across. In your friendship the unrewarding ones sit around; by your help I seek your favour.
10.40.8
यु॒वं ह॑ कृ॒शं यु॒वम॑श्विना श॒युं यु॒वं वि॒धन्तं॑ वि॒धवा॑मुरुष्यथः ।
यु॒वं स॒निभ्य॑ स्त॒नय॑न्तमश्वि॒नाप॑ व्र॒जमू॑र्णुथः स॒प्तास्य॑म् ॥
O Aśvins, you two rescued the lean one, you rescued Śayu, you rescued the smiting one and the widow. For the givers, O Aśvins, you opened the thundering one, the cow-pen, the seven-mouthed one.
10.40.9
जनि॑ष्ट॒ योषा॑ प॒तय॑त्कनीन॒को वि चारु॑हन्वी॒रुधो॑ दं॒सना॒ अनु॑ ।
आस्मै॑ रीयन्ते निव॒नेव॒ सिन्ध॑वो अ॒स्मा अह्ने॑ भवति॒ तत्प॑तित्व॒नम् ॥
The young woman was born; may Kanīnaka fly. The rays climbed apart and went along toward the plants. For him the rivers flow as if bowing; for him, on that day, it becomes husbandship.
10.40.10
जी॒वं रु॑दन्ति॒ वि म॑यन्ते अध्व॒रे दी॒र्घामनु॒ प्रसि॑तिं दीधियु॒र्नरः॑ ।
वा॒मं पि॒तृभ्यो॒ य इ॒दं स॑मेरि॒रे मयः॒ पति॑भ्यो॒ जन॑यः परि॒ष्वजे॑ ॥
They weep for the living one; at the sacrifice they lament apart; men have kept the long lamentation. This sweet food they send together for the fathers; as wives send for husbands, for embrace.
10.40.11
न तस्य॑ विद्म॒ तदु॒ षु प्र वो॑चत॒ युवा॑ ह॒ यद्यु॑व॒त्याः क्षेति॒ योनि॑षु ।
प्रि॒योस्रि॑यस्य वृष॒भस्य॑ रे॒तिनो॑ गृ॒हं ग॑मेमाश्विना॒ तदु॑श्मसि ॥
We do not know that; speak it forth well, when the young man dwells in the wombs of the young woman. May we go to the house of the dear-glorious bull, the seed-bearer, O Aśvins; that is what we desire.
10.40.12
आ वा॑मगन्त्सुम॒तिर्वा॑जिनीवसू॒ न्य॑श्विना हृ॒त्सु कामा॑ अयंसत ।
अभू॑तं गो॒पा मि॑थु॒ना शु॑भस्पती प्रि॒या अ॑र्य॒म्णो दुर्याँ॑ अशीमहि ॥
O possessors of wealth, may your good thought come down to you; O Aśvins, desires have held fast in the hearts. May you two become protectors, a pair, lords and dear ones of the bright one; may we reach the gates of Aryaman.
10.40.13
ता म॑न्दसा॒ना मनु॑षो दुरो॒ण आ ध॒त्तं र॒यिं स॒हवी॑रं वच॒स्यवे॑ ।
कृ॒तं ती॒र्थं सु॑प्रपा॒णं शु॑भस्पती स्था॒णुं प॑थे॒ष्ठामप॑ दुर्म॒तिं ह॑तम् ॥
O you two exhilarated ones, set wealth in the house of the mortal, with heroic sons, and give it to the one who speaks well. O lords of the bright one, make a ford with easy drinking water, establish a firm post and a good guide on the path, and drive away ill will.
10.40.14
क्व॑ स्विद॒द्य क॑त॒मास्व॒श्विना॑ वि॒क्षु द॒स्रा मा॑दयेते शु॒भस्पती॑ ।
क ईं॒ नि ये॑मे कत॒मस्य॑ जग्मतु॒र्विप्र॑स्य वा॒ यज॑मानस्य वा गृ॒हम् ॥
Where, now, are those two today, among which of the peoples? The wondrous Aśvins, lords of the bright one, delight. Who holds them fast? To which one's house of the many have they gone, that of the inspired seer or of the sacrificer?
