5.77.1

prā̱ta̱ryāvā̍ṇā pratha̱mā ya̍jadhvam pu̱rā gṛdhrā̱d ara̍ruṣaḥ pibātaḥ |
prā̱tar hi ya̱jñam a̱śvinā̍ da̱dhāte̱ pra śa̍ṁsanti ka̱vaya̍ḥ pūrva̱bhāja̍ḥ ||

FIRST worship those who come at early morning: let the Twain drink before the giftless niggard. The Aṣvins claim the sacrifice at daybreak: the sages yielding the first share extol them.

Ralph T. H. Griffith 1889, The Hymns of the Rigveda

5.77.2

prā̱tar ya̍jadhvam a̱śvinā̍ hinota̱ na sā̱yam a̍sti deva̱yā aju̍ṣṭam |
u̱tānyo a̱smad ya̍jate̱ vi cāva̱ḥ pūrva̍ḥ-pūrvo̱ yaja̍māno̱ vanī̍yān ||

Worship at dawn and instigate the Aṣvins:nor is the worshipper at eve rejected. Besides ourselves another craves and worships: each first in worship is most highly favoured.

Ralph T. H. Griffith 1889, The Hymns of the Rigveda

mano̍javā aśvinā̱ vāta̍raṁhā̱ yenā̍tiyā̱tho du̍ri̱tāni̱ viśvā̍ ||

Covered with gold, meath-tinted, dropping fatness, your chariot with its freight of food comes hither, Swift as thought, Aṣvins, rapid as the tempest, wherewith ye travel over all obstructions.

Ralph T. H. Griffith 1889, The Hymns of the Rigveda

yo bhūyi̍ṣṭha̱ṁ nāsa̍tyābhyāṁ vi̱veṣa̱ cani̍ṣṭham pi̱tvo rara̍te vibhā̱ge |
sa to̱kam a̍sya pīpara̱c chamī̍bhi̱r anū̍rdhvabhāsa̱ḥ sada̱m it tu̍turyāt ||

He who hath served most often the Nâsatyas, and gives the sweetest food at distribution, Furthers with his own holy works his offspring, and ever passes those whose flames ascend not.

Ralph T. H. Griffith 1889, The Hymns of the Rigveda

5.77.5

May we obtain the Aṣvins' newest favour, and gain their health-bestowing happy ildance. Bring riches hither unto us, and heroes, and all felicity and joy, Immortals!
