viśvāni devī bhuvanābhicakṣyā pratīcī cakṣururviyā vi bhāti viśvaṃ jīvaṃ carase bodhayantī viśvasya vācamavidanmanāyoḥ
All goddesses behold the worlds; the east eye shines through them and illumines. She who makes the world live and move awakens the speech of the world for mind and heart.
The divine (Uṣas), having lighted up the whole world, spreads, expanding with her radiance, towards the west, arousing all living creatures to their labours; she hears the speech of all endowed with thought.
Bending her looks on all the world, the Goddess shines, widely spreading with her bright eye westward. Waking to motion every living creature, she understands the voice of each adorer.
