RIGVEDA - BOOK 10 -HYMN CXLIII. Aśvins.
1. YE made that Atri, worn with eld, free as a horse to win the goal. When ye restored to youth and strength Kakṣīvān like a car renewed, 2 Ye freed that Atri like a horse, and brought him newly-born to earth. Ye loosed him like a firm-tied knot which Gods unsoiled by dust had bound. 3 Heroes who showed most wondrous power to Atri, strive to win fair songs; For then, O Heroes of the sky, your hymn of praise shall cease no more. 4 This claims your notice, Bounteous Gods! - oblation, Aśvins! and our love, That ye, O Heroes, in the fight may bring us safe to ample room. 5 Ye Twain to Bhujyu tossed about in ocean at the region's end, Nāsatyas, with your winged sterds came nigh, and gave him strength to win. 6 Come with your joys, most liberal Gods, Lords of all treasures, bringing weal. Like fresh full waters to a well, so, Heroes come and be with us.
