Philosophy and Religion / Rig Veda

    Rig Veda

    Book 7, Hymn LXXX. Dawn

    1 THE priests, Vasisthas, are the first awakened to welcome Uṣas with their songs and praises,
    Who makes surrounding regions part asunder,and shows apparent all existing creatures.

    2 Giving fresh life when she hath hid the darkness, this Dawn hath wakened there with new-born lustre.
    Youthful and unrestrained she cometh forward: she hath turned thoughts to Sun and fire and worship.

    3 May blessed Mornings shine on us for ever, with wealth of kine, of horses, and of heroes,
    Streaming with all abundance, pouring fatness. Preserve us evermore, ye Gods, with blessings.
