ā vāmagansumatirvājinīvasū nyaśvinā hṛtsu kāmā ayaṃsata abhūtaṃ gopā mithunā śubhaspatī priyā aryamṇo duryām̐ aśīmahi
Either the leftward sun or the vigor of might clothed in strength, O Ashvins, set desires in hearts. There arose the cow-pair, O gracious lord, O Gopā, beloved of Aryaman, we overcome the hostile ones.
Aśvins, rich in food, lords of water, twin (associates), may your good will devolve (upon us), may thedesires (of our hearts) be attained; you have been my protectors; may we, (being) beloved, attain the habitationof a husband.
Your favouring grace hath come, ye Lords of ample wealth: Asvins, our longings are stored up within your hearts. Ye, Lords of splendour, have become our twofold guard: may we as welcome friends reach Aryaman's abode.
