वयञ्जते दिवो अन्तेष्वक्तून विशो न युक्ता उषसो यतन्ते | सं ते गावस्तम आ वर्तयन्ति जयोतिर्यछन्ति सवितेव बाहू

IAST Romanisation

vyañjate divo anteṣvaktūn viśo na yuktā uṣaso yatante | saṃ te ghāvastama ā vartayanti jyotiryachanti saviteva bāhū

English Translation (Griffith)

They paint their bright rays on the sky's far limits. the Dawns come on like tribes arrayed for battle. Thy cattle, closely shutting up the darkness, as Savitar spreads his arms, give forth their lustre.
