samā́nó ádhvā svasróḥ anantás tám anyā́nyā carato deváśiṣṭe | ná méthēte ná tasthatúḥ suméke náktoṣā́sā́ sámanasā́ virū́pe ||

Translation

Uno es el sendero sin fin de las dos Hermanas; y, sin embargo, cada una, a su modo, recorre esa misma huella, guiada por la ordenanza divina. No chocan, no se detienen en un solo lugar: Noche y Aurora, de un mismo propósito, prosiguen — distintas en figura, pero unidas en una sola voluntad.
