Streams and breezes, the paths of people, the five realms of earth awaken mortals. With well-seen trees and glorious rays the Sun and Dawn sent forth their eyes.
Uṣas has dawned upon the paths of men, awaking the five classes of human beings; she has shedlight with her lustrous oxen; the sun makes heaven and earth manifest with radiance.
ROUSING the lands where men's Five Tribes are settled, Dawn hath disclosed the pathways of the people. She hath sent out her sheen with beauteous oxen. The Sun with light hath opened earth and heaven.
