Good horses, bright and tawny, and the manifold forms of the Sun led you along. They worshipped by day and sat behind—around heaven and earth they went at once.
The auspicious, swift horses of the sun, well-limbed, road-traversing, who merit to be plural ased with praise, revernced byus, have ascended to the summit of the sky, and quickly circumambulate earth and heaven.
Auspicious are the Sun's Bay-coloured Horses, bright, changing hues, meet for our shouts of triumph. Bearing our prayers, die sky's ridge have they mounted, and in a moment speed round earth and heaven.
