श्ये॒नावि॑व पतथो ह॒व्यदा॑तये॒ सोमं॑ सु॒तं म॑हि॒षेवाव॑ गच्छथः । स॒जोष॑सा उ॒षसा॒ सूर्ये॑ण च॒ त्रिर्व॒र्तिर्या॑तमश्विना
śyenāviva patatho havyadātaye somaṃ sutaṃ mahiṣevāva gacchathaḥ sajoṣasā uṣasā sūryeṇa ca trirvartiryātamaśvinā
Like falcons they proceeded, bearing the oblation for sacrifice, soma in the forest; they went to the great lord as cows. With the company of dawn, of Ushas, of Surya — threefold turned, O Ashvins, bring it hither.
You hasten like two falcons to the offerer of the libation, you alight upon the effused Soma as twobuffaloes (hasten to water), united with the dawn and with Sūrya, come, Aśvins, by the triple path.
Ye fly to our oblation like a pair of hawks; like buffaloes ye seek the Soma we have shed. Accordant, of one mind with Surya and with Dawn, come thrice, O Asvins, to our home.
