Hail to the Aśvins, the divine healers and the harbingers of dawn,
Who ride forth at the breaking of the day with forms most radiant and beautiful,
Who bring the blessings of the morning light unto all the worlds awakening.
The Aśvins are the ancient ones, born at the very beginning of creation,
They emerged from the cosmic waters when the sun first did arise,
They are the physicians of the gods, the masters of all healing arts divine,
And they do ride their golden chariot across the sky at break of day.
Come, O Aśvins, come forth now in this early morning hour,
We do invoke you with our voices raised in hymns of welcome and of praise,
Grant unto us your blessings on this day that is now dawning,
That we might be strengthened and renewed by your presence holy.
The Aśvins do restore the broken and the maimed unto their wholeness,
They do heal the sick and the afflicted with their knowledge of the healing herbs,
They do cure the diseases manifest and those that are invisible to mortal sight,
They do bring back the life to those who are close unto death's embrace.
They are the rescuers of those in peril, the saviors of the lost and wandering,
Many are the tales of their deeds rescuing mortals from the depths of danger,
They do ride their chariot swiftly to the aid of those who call upon their name,
And none are too lowly nor too wretched for their compassionate assistance.
The Aśvins do bestow the gifts of youth and vitality eternal,
They do strengthen the limbs and sharpen the senses and the faculties,
They do grant unto us the energy and the vigor for the tasks that lie before us,
They do preserve us from the ravages of age and the decay of time.
They are the lords of beauty and of grace, the patrons of the fair and the lovely,
Their own forms are most perfect, most radiant, most pleasing to behold,
And they do share their beauty with those who do honor them sincerely,
That mortals might reflect in their lives some portion of the gods' own radiance.
The Aśvins are companions to all who do journey through the night of ignorance,
They do light the way with the torch of knowledge and of understanding,
They do guide the wanderer safely through the darkness and the confusion,
Until at last the dawn doth break and the truth is manifest to all.
Come, O Aśvins, come forth now with your chariot gleaming gold,
Come with your healing powers and your gifts of restoration,
Come with your beauty and your grace, come with your compassion deep,
Accept our hymn of praise and grant unto us your favor and your blessing eternal.
May the Aśvins ever ride at dawn to bring their healing light,
May their presence ever be felt by those who call upon their name,
May their blessings ever flow like a river unto all the worlds,
And may we mortals ever be grateful for their constant care and vigilance.
