उषा अप स्वसुस् तमः सं वर्तयति वर्तनिं सुजातता । अया वाजं देवहितं सनेम मदेम शतहिमाः सुवीराः ॥१॥
uṣā apa svasus tamaḥ saṃ vartayati vartaniṃ sujātatā | ayā vājaṃ devahitaṃ sanema madema śatahimāḥ suvīrāḥ ||1||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
The dawn, with nobleness, makes the darkness roll together [and] away on her sister's track; therewith may we win the prize (vā́ja) set by the gods; may we revel, living a hundred winters, rich in heroes.
Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
