ábhūd uṣā́ índra-tamā maghónī ájījanat suvitā́ya śrávāṃsi | ví divó devī́ duhitā́ dadhāty áṅgiras-tamā su-kṛté vásūni ||

Translation

Dawn has come into being, most puissant like Indra, the bountiful one; she has generated the luminous hearings for a happy going. The Goddess, the Daughter of Heaven, distributes widely treasures for the doer of the good work—she, most Angiras-like in her kindling of the inner fire.
