RV 3.54.16

नासत्या मे पितरा बन्धुपृच्छा सजात्यम् अश्विनोश् चारु नाम । युवं हि स्थो रयिदौ नो रयीणां दात्रं रक्षेथे अकवैर् अदब्धा ॥

nāsatyā me pitarā bandhupṛcchā sajātyam aśvinoś cāru nāma | yuvaṃ hi stho rayidau no rayīṇāṃ dātraṃ rakṣethe akavair adabdhā ||

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

My Sires are the Nasatyas, kind tokensmen: the Asvins' kinship is a glorious title. For ye are they who give us store of riches: ye guard your gift uncheated by the bounteous.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
