RIGVEDA - BOOK 8- HYMN LXXIV. Aśvins.
1. To this mine invocation, O ye Aśvins, ye Nāsatyas, come, To drink the savoury Soma juice. 2 This laud of mine, ye Aśvins Twain, and this mine invitation hear, To drink the savoury Soma juice. 3 Here Kṛṣṇa is invoking you, O Aśvins, Lords of ample wealth. To drink the savoury Soma juice. 4 List, Heroes, to the singer's call, the call of Kṛṣṇa lauding you, To drink the savoury Soma juice. 5 Chiefs, to the sage who sings your praise grant an inviolable home, To drink the savoury Soma juice. 6 Come to the worshipper's abode, Aśvins, who here is lauding you, To drink the savoury Soma juice. 7 Yoke to the firmly jointed car the ass which draws you, Lords of wealth. To drink the savoury Soma juice. 8 Come hither, Aśvins, on your car of triple form with triple seat, To drink the savoury Soma juice. 9 O Aśvins, O Nāsatyas, now accept with favouring grace my songs, To drink the savoury Soma juice.
