Rig Veda 10.40.2: Mandala 10, Sukta 40, Mantra 2
Sukta 10.40
कुह स्विद्दोषा कुह वस्तोरश्विना कुहाभिपित्वं करतः कुहोषतुः । को वां शयुत्रा विधवेव देवरं मर्यं न योषा कृणुते सधस्थ आ ॥
kúha svíd doṣā́ kúha vástoḥ aśvinā kúhābhipitváṃ karatáḥ kúhoṣatuḥ | kó vāṃ śayutrā́ vidhávéva deváraṃ máryaṃ ná yóṣā kṛṇute sadhástha ā́ ||
Onde, pois, estais de noite, onde ao alvorecer, ó Aśvins? Onde realizais a vossa íntima união, onde repousais? Quem vos prepara o assento da companhia —como a viúva busca o cunhado, como a donzela apronta o amado— para que venhais à morada comum?
