2.39.1

ग्रावा॑णेव॒ तदिदर्थं॑ जरेथे॒ गृध्रे॑व वृ॒क्षं नि॑धि॒मन्त॒मच्छ॑ ।
ब्र॒ह्माणे॑व वि॒दथ॑ उक्थ॒शासा॑ दू॒तेव॒ हव्या॒ जन्या॑ पुरु॒त्रा ॥

Like two millstones you labor for one and the same purpose, like vultures toward a tree full of treasure. Like two brahmā-priests, two hymn-reciters, two messengers, you are to be called upon, many-born.

2.39.2

प्रा॒त॒र्यावा॑णा र॒थ्ये॑व वी॒राजेव॑ य॒मा वर॒मा स॑चेथे ।
मेने॑ इव त॒न्वा॑ शुम्भ॑माने॒ दम्प॑तीव क्रतु॒विदा॒ जने॑षु ॥

You two come at dawn, like charioteers, like heroes, like goats; as a pair you take up the boon. Shining in body, like wives, like a husband and wife, you two know the purpose among people.

2.39.3

शृङ्गे॑व नः प्रथ॒मा ग॑न्तम॒र्वाक्श॒फावि॑व॒ जर्भु॑राणा॒ तरो॑भिः ।
च॒क्र॒वा॒केव॒ प्रति॒ वस्तो॑रुस्रा॒र्वाञ्चा॑ यातं र॒थ्ये॑व शक्रा ॥

Like horns, come to us first, both of you, like hooves trembling; toward home like the cakravāka birds. O Usra, come here; you two, like charioteers, O mighty ones, come.

2.39.4

ना॒वेव॑ नः पारयतं यु॒गेव॒ नभ्ये॑व न उप॒धीव॑ प्र॒धीव॑ ।
श्वाने॑व नो॒ अरि॑षण्या त॒नूनां॒ खृग॑लेव वि॒स्रसः॑ पातम॒स्मान् ॥

Carry us across like a boat, like a yoke, like axles, becoming our support; like dogs, our unharmed bodies; like spokes of a wheel, protect us from falling — protect us, guard us.

2.39.5

वाते॑वाजु॒र्या न॒द्ये॑व री॒तिर॒क्षी इ॑व॒ चक्षु॒षा या॑तम॒र्वाक् ।
हस्ता॑विव त॒न्वे॑ शम्भ॑विष्ठा॒ पादे॑व नो नयतं॒ वस्यो॒ अच्छ॑ ॥

Like the wind, unaging; like rivers, in flow — like eyes, with sight, you two come toward us; like hands to the body, most auspicious; like feet, lead us on to the desirable things.

2.39.6

ओष्ठा॑विव॒ मध्वा॒स्ने वद॑न्ता॒ स्तना॑विव पिप्यतं जी॒वसे॑ नः ।
नासे॑व नस्त॒न्वो॑ रक्षि॒तारा॒ कर्णा॑विव सु॒श्रुता॑ भूतम॒स्मे ॥

Like the two lips of the mouth for honey, speaking; like two breasts for life, nourish us; like nostrils, guardians of the body; like ears, well-hearing — be for us, both of you.

2.39.7

हस्ते॑व श॒क्तिम॒भि सं॑द॒दी नः॒ क्षामे॑व नः॒ सम॑जतं॒ रजां॑सि ।
इ॒मा गिरो॑ अश्विना युष्म॒यन्तीः॒ क्ष्णोत्रे॑णेव॒ स्वधि॑तिं॒ सं शि॑शीतम् ॥

Grasp strength for us as with two hands, and set the realms in motion together for us as a craftsman would. O Aśvins, sharpen these songs directed toward you together, as one sharpens an axe with a chisel.

2.39.8

ए॒तानि॑ वामश्विना॒ वर्ध॑नानि॒ ब्रह्म॒ स्तोमं॑ गृत्सम॒दासो॑ अक्रन् ।
तानि॑ नरा जुजुषा॒णोप॑ यातं बृ॒हद्व॑देम वि॒दथे॑ सु॒वीराः॑ ॥

O Aśvins, the Gṛtsamadas have made these growth-giving praises, sacred prayers, and hymns for you. O men, accept them with joy and come to us, that we, rich in heroic sons, may speak great words at the assembly.
