Smiting with rays, she disperses the shining brightness everywhere; the Kanvas invoked her with hymns, calling upon the bright Daksha-born one.

You, Uṣas, dispersing the darkness, illumine the shining universe with your rays; such as you are, Kaṇvas, desirous of wealth, praise you with their hymns.

Thou dawning with thy beams of light illumest all the radiant realm. Thee, as thou art, the Kanvas, fain for wealth, have called with sacred songs.
