Uṣas has opened up the paths of men, awakening the five human settlements. With her well-appearing draft-oxen she has reached to her radiance; the Sun has uncovered the two worlds with his eye.

RV 7 79.2

व्य् अञ्जते दिवो अन्तेष्व् अक्तून् विशो न युक्ता उषसो यतन्ते । सꣳ ते गावस् तम आ वर्तयन्ति ज्योतिर् यच्छन्ति सवितेव बाहू

vy añjate divo anteṣv aktūn viśo na yuktā uṣaso yatante | saṁ te gāvas tama ā vartayanti jyotir yacchanti saviteva bāhū

They anoint the nights at the borders of heaven; the Dawns press on like tribes yoked (for battle). Your cows roll the darkness together and away; they hold out light as Savitṛ (holds out) his arms.

The bountiful Uṣas, most Indra-like, has come to be; she has begotten glories for (our) good passage. The goddess, daughter of Heaven, most Aṅgiras-like, distributes goods to the man of good deeds.

तावद् उषो राधो अस्मभ्यꣳ रास्व यावत् स्तोतृभ्यो अरदो गृणाना । याꣳ त्वा जज्ञुर् वृषभस्या रवेण वि दृऴ्हस्य दुरो अद्रेर् और्णोः

Grant us, O Uṣas, as much bounty as you, when praised, dug out for your praisers — you whom they brought to birth by the bellowing of the bull, when you uncovered the doors of the firm rock.

RV 7 79.5

देवꣳ-देवꣳ राधसे चोदयन्त्य् अस्मद्र्यक् सूनृता ईरयन्ती । व्युच्छन्ती नः सनये धियो धा यूयम् पात स्वस्तिभिः सदा नः

devaṁ-devaṁ rādhase codayanty asmadryak sūnṛtā īrayantī | vyucchantī naḥ sanaye dhiyo dhā yūyam pāta svastibhiḥ sadā naḥ

Urging god after god to generosity, sending the gracious gifts our way — as you shine forth, set our thoughts toward winning. Do you protect us always with your blessings.
