Translation
The Aśvinī-kumāras, pleased to see Sukanyā's chastity and faithfulness, showed her Cyavana, her husband, and after taking permission from him, they returned to the heavenly planets in their plane.
Pleased by Sukanyā's chastity, the Aśvins identify Cyavana and depart. Pure-hearted fidelity earns help from places we did not request, then sends those helpers away without claim.
