AVŚ 7.48.1

राकाम् अहं सुहवा सुष्टुती हुवे शृणोतु नः सुभगा बोधतु त्मना । सीव्यत्व् अपः सूच्याछिद्यमानया ददातु वीरं शतदायम् उक्थ्यम् ॥१॥

rākām ahaṃ suhavā suṣṭutī huve śṛṇotu naḥ subhagā bodhatu tmanā | sīvyatv apaḥ sūcyāchidyamānayā dadātu vīraṃ śatadāyam ukthyam ||1||

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

With eulogy I call on Raka swift to hear may she, auspicious, hear us, and herself observe. With never-breaking needle may she sew her work, and give a hero son most wealthy, meet for praise.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)This is the translator's rendering of the same verse where it occurs at RV 2.32.4; the wording of this text may differ in places.
