वि तद ययुररुणयुग्भिरश्वैश्चित्रं भान्त्युषसश्चन्द्ररथाः | अग्रं यज्ञस्य बर्हतो नयन्तीर्वि ता बाधन्तेतम ऊर्म्यायाः

vi tad yayuraruṇayughbhiraśvaiścitraṃ bhāntyuṣasaścandrarathāḥ | aghraṃ yajñasya bṛhato nayantīrvi tā bādhantetama ūrmyāyāḥ

English Translation (Griffith)

All this with red-rayed steeds have they divided: the Dawns on bright cars shine in wondrous fashion. They, bringing near the stately rite's commencement, drive far away the night's surrounding shadows.
