Rishi: पुरुमीळहाजमीळ्हौ सौहोत्रौ · Devata: अश्विनौ · Metre: त्रिष्टुप्
7 verses · 43 of 58
The rishis are Purumilha and Ajamilha, sons of Suhotra; the devatas are the Ashvins; the metre is trishtubh. They open with questions: which of the holy ones will hear, which will welcome our praise? Whose chariot, swift-horsed, did Surya's daughter choose? Born of heaven, divine birds, by what power are you mightiest? Your wide chariot goes round the sky when it comes from the ocean; honey drips for you. The river sprinkled your horses with its stream, and the red birds flew round. This is the swift car by which you became the lords of Surya. Guard the singer; our longing rests on you.
