RIGVEDA SAMHITA : Mandala I

HYMN 47

Rishi : PRASKANVA Deity: ASHVINS

O Ashvins, increasers of Truth, here is poured for ye the sweetest Soma; drink ye the juices pressed yesterday. Bear ye the delightful riches for the giver.
O Ashvins, come ye in your beautiful car, three-columned, moving in the three worlds. The Kanvas hymn ye in the sacrifice; listen to their call.
O Ashvins, increasers of Truth, drink ye the sweetest Soma. Thereafter come today, in your car, ye accomplishers, to the sacrificer who offers, bearing wealth.
O Ashvins, omniscient, seated in the triple seat, sprinkle ye our sacrifice with sweet sap. Pouring the Soma, the illustrious Kanvas invoke ye.

Triple seat: in the external ritual it is the thrice-heaped grass; in the inner context it refers to the three stations of matter, life and mind.

O Ashvins, those aids with which ye guarded Kanva well, O Lords of Bliss, guard us with those. O increasers of Truth, drink the Soma.
O Ashvins who accomplish, ye brought in your wealth-laden car abundance to Sudasa. Bear for us, likewise, the much-coveted wealth from the ocean or from heaven.

Sudasa: giver of plenty.

O Ashvins, whether ye be far or close to hero-sacrifice, come to us in your car of happy movement with radiances of the sun.
Let your coursers, serving the sacrifice, bring ye to our libations. O leaders, may he annoint him of auspicious works and right offerings with force of impulsion and take your place on the spread-out seat.
O Ashyins, come ye in the sun-clad car in which ye have ever carried wealth to the giver (of offering), come to drink the sweet Soma.
Ardently we call, for our growth, the ever affluent Ashvins with chants and lauds of riks.

O Ashvins, ye have ever partaken of Soma in the loved home of the Kanvas.
