1

This Lady, giver of joy, after her sister shines brightly, daughter of the sky, has appeared.

2

Ever faithful, Mother of the cows, in color like a fiery mare, The Dawn became the Asvins' friend.

3

And you are also the Asvins' friend, Mother of the cows you are: O Dawn, you rule over wealth.

4

Thinking of you, oh joyful one, as she drives away hatred, We woke up to meet you with praise.

5

Our eyes behold your blessed beams like herds of cattle let loose to graze. Dawn has filled the wide expanse.

6

When you fill it, Radiant One! you dispel darkness with light. After your nature, help us, Dawn.

7

You spread heaven with rays, the dear wide region of mid-air. With your bright shining, Dawn.
