This hymn is a fervent and repeated call to the Ashvins, the divine twins, imploring their swift and immediate protection. It highlights their legendary acts of aid, like saving Atri, and seeks their presence, blessing with wealth, and deliverance from affliction. The constant refrain underscores the urgency of the plea.
