Sukta 5.80
एषा शुभ्रा न तन्वो विदानोर्ध्वेव स्नाती दृशये नो अस्थात् । अप द्वेषो बाधमाना तमांस्युषा दिवो दुहिता ज्योतिषागात् ॥
eṣā́ śubhrā́ ná tanvò vidānórdhveva snātī́ dṛśáye no asthāt | ápa dvéṣo bādhamānā́ tamāṃsy uṣā́ divó duhitā́ jyotiṣā́gāt ||
This Dawn, pure and bright, knowing her own form, has stood for our seeing like one who rises and is bathed in radiance. Driving away hostility and the darknesses, Ushas, the daughter of Heaven, has come with light.
