यु॒वं ह॑ घ॒र्मं मधु॑मन्त॒मत्र॑ये॒ऽपो न क्षोदो॑ऽवृणीतमे॒षे । तद्वां॑ नरावश्विना॒ पश्व॑इष्टी॒ रथ्ये॑व च॒क्रा प्रति॑ यन्ति॒ मध्वः॑
yuvaṃ ha gharmaṃ madhumantamatraye'po na kṣodo'vṛṇītameṣe tadvāṃ narāvaśvinā paśvaiṣṭī rathyeva cakrā prati yanti madhvaḥ
You, young ones, brought forth the warm, honey-laden waters; hunger did not seize these. The men with horses and herds drove forward; the presses went toward the chariot.
You rendered the heat as soothing as sweet butter to Atri; wishing (for relief), and invested it with coolness,like water; therefore, for you, Aśvins, leaders (of rites) the fire-offering (is made); to you the Soma (drips) run like chariot wheels (down a declivity).
Ye made the fierce heat to be full of sweetness for Atri at his wish, like streaming water. Fire-offering thence is yours, O Asvins, Heroes: your car-wheels speed to us like springs of honey.
