4.51.1
इ॒दमु॒ त्यत्पु॑रु॒तमं॑ पु॒रस्ता॒ज्ज्योति॒स्तम॑सो व॒युना॑वदस्थात् ।
नू॒नं दि॒वो दु॑हि॒तरो॑ विभा॒तीर्गा॒तुं कृ॑णवन्नु॒षसो॒ जना॑य ॥
Behold, out of the darkness the manifold light has risen in the east, standing forth with its rays. The shining daughters of heaven, the Uṣas, are surely making a path for mankind.
4.51.2
अस्थु॑रु चि॒त्रा उ॒षसः॑ पु॒रस्ता॑न्मि॒ता इ॑व॒ स्वर॑वोऽध्व॒रेषु॑ ।
व्यू॑ व्र॒जस्य॒ तम॑सो॒ द्वारो॒च्छन्ती॑रव्र॒ञ्च्छुच॑यः पाव॒काः ॥
The bright Uṣas stood forth in the east, like friends spreading light at the sacrifices. They opened the two doors of the darkness's stall; the purifying, pure dawns appeared.
4.51.3
उ॒च्छन्ती॑र॒द्य चि॑तयन्त भो॒जान्रा॑धो॒देया॑यो॒षसो॑ म॒घोनीः॑ ।
अ॒चि॒त्रे अ॒न्तः प॒णयः॑ ससन्तु॒ अबु॑ध्यमाना॒स्तम॑सो॒ विम॑ध्ये ॥
May the shining Uṣas today rouse the enjoyers; bountiful Uṣas, to bestow wealth. Let the Paṇis sleep within in the unlit place, unaware, in the midst of darkness.
4.51.4
कु॒वित्स दे॑वीः स॒नयो॒ नवो॑ वा॒ यामो॑ बभू॒यादु॑षसो वो अ॒द्य ।
येना॒ नव॑ग्वे॒ अङ्गि॑रे॒ दश॑ग्वे स॒प्तास्ये॑ रेवती रे॒वदू॒ष ॥
O divine Uṣas, may your new gift and course be today; or whereby you, the rich ones, shone forth for Navagva, the Aṅgiras, Daśagva and Saptāsya.
4.51.5
यू॒यं हि दे॑वीर्ऋत॒युग्भि॒रश्वैः॑ परिप्रया॒थ भुव॑नानि स॒द्यः ।
प्र॒बो॒धय॑न्तीरुषसः स॒सन्तं॑ द्वि॒पाच्चतु॑ष्पाच्च॒रथा॑य जी॒वम् ॥
O divine Uṣas, you swiftly go round all worlds with horses yoked by ṛta, awakening the sleeper, giving life for the journey to the two-footed and the four-footed.
4.51.6
क्व॑ स्विदासां कत॒मा पु॑रा॒णी यया॑ वि॒धाना॑ विद॒धुर्ऋ॑भू॒णाम् ।
शुभं॒ यच्छु॒भ्रा उ॒षस॒श्चर॑न्ति॒ न वि ज्ञा॑यन्ते स॒दृशी॑रजु॒र्याः ॥
Where, and which of these dawns is the most ancient, by which they established the ordinances of the Ṛbhus? When the bright Uṣas move beautifully, they are not distinguished apart; they are alike in appearance, ageless.
4.51.7
ता घा॒ ता भ॒द्रा उ॒षसः॑ पु॒रासु॑रभि॒ष्टिद्यु॑म्ना ऋ॒तजा॑तसत्याः ।
यास्वी॑जा॒नः श॑शमा॒न उ॒क्थैः स्तु॒वञ्च्छंस॒न्द्रवि॑णं स॒द्य आप॑ ॥
Those Uṣases are auspicious, existing of old, brilliant, born of ṛta, true in nature. In them the sacrificer and the singer, praising with hymns, at once win wealth.
4.51.8
ता आ च॑रन्ति सम॒ना पु॒रस्ता॑त्समा॒नतः॑ सम॒ना प॑प्रथा॒नाः ।
ऋ॒तस्य॑ दे॒वीः सद॑सो बुधा॒ना गवां॒ न सर्गा॑ उ॒षसो॑ जरन्ते ॥
Together they move forward from the east, united, springing from one place and spreading wide. The divine goddesses of ṛta awaken from their seat; like herds of cows, the Uṣases advance.
4.51.9
ता इन्न्वे॑व स॑म॒ना स॑मा॒नीरमी॑तवर्णा उ॒षस॑श्चरन्ति ।
गूह॑न्ती॒रभ्व॒मसि॑तं॒ रुश॑द्भिः शु॒क्रास्त॒नूभिः॒ शुच॑यो रुचा॒नाः ॥
Those same Uṣases move forward together, of one kind, of unmeasured colour. Concealing the darkness and the black night, they shine pure and bright in their gleaming bodies.
4.51.10
र॒यिं दि॑वो दुहितरो विभा॒तीः प्र॒जाव॑न्तं यच्छता॒स्मासु॑ देवीः ।
स्यो॒नादा वः॑ प्रति॒बुध्य॑मानाः सु॒वीर्य॑स्य॒ पत॑यः स्याम ॥
O daughters of the sky, shining Uṣases, bestow upon us wealth with offspring, O goddesses. Awakening from your place, may we become lords of good heroism.
4.51.11
तद्वो॑ दिवो दुहितरो विभा॒तीरुप॑ ब्रुव उषसो य॒ज्ञके॑तुः ।
व॒यं स्या॑म य॒शसो॒ जने॑षु॒ तद्द्यौश्च॑ ध॒त्तां पृ॑थि॒वी च॑ दे॒वी ॥
O shining daughters of the sky, Uṣases with sacrifice as your banner, I declare this to you: may we be famed among people. Let the sky hold it, and the goddess Earth as well.
