Whatever with Indra ye be faring, Asvins, or resting in one dwelling-place with Vāyu,
In concord with the Ribhus or Ādityas, or standing still in
Vishnu's striding-places.

Or as all-conquering might in war, be that the Asvins' noblest grace.

Now come, ye Asvins, hitherward: here are oblations set for you;
These Soma draughts to aid Yadu and Turvasa, these offered you mid Kanva's sons.

Whatever healing balm is yours, Nāsatyas near or far away,
Therewith, great Sages, grant a home to Vatsa and to Vimāda.
