Sukta 57

Mantra 1

युवं देवा क्रतुना पूर्व्येण युक्ता रथेन तविषं यजत्रा । आगच्छतं नासत्या शचीभिरिदं तृतीयं सवनं पिबाथः ॥

O you two divine Ones, with your ancient will of effective knowledge, yoked to your chariot of force, come here, O Nāsatyas, by your powers of accomplishment; drink this third pressing of Soma.

Mantra 2

युवां देवास्त्रय एकादशासः सत्याः सत्यस्य ददृशे पुरस्तात् । अस्माकं यज्ञं सवनं जुषाणा पातं सोममश्विना दीद्यग्नी ॥

You two are the gods—three and eleven—true, seen in front of the Truth itself. Accepting our sacrifice and this Soma-pressing, drink the Soma, O Aśvins, you who blaze with fire.

Mantra 3

पनाय्यं तदश्विना कृतं वां वृषभो दिवो रजसः पृथिव्याः । सहस्रं शंसा उत ये गविष्टौ सर्वाँ इत्ताँ उप याता पिबध्यै ॥

Admirable is that work you two have done, O Aśvins—bull-like in the heaven’s wideness and on the earth. A thousand praises, and those that seek the Rays: come near to all of them, indeed, for the drinking of Soma.

Mantra 4

अयं वां भागो निहितो यजत्रेमा गिरो नासत्योप यातम् । पिबतं सोमं मधुमन्तमस्मे प्र दाश्वांसमवतं शचीभिः ॥

This portion is set down for you two, O worthy ones; to these songs, O Nāsatyas, come near. Drink the Soma rich in sweetness within us, and by your powers of accomplishment uphold the giver who offers.
