Library·Ṛgveda Saṃhitā·10·10.183
अपश्यं त्वा मनसा चेकितानं तपसो जातं तपसो विभूतम् । इह प्रजाम् इह रयिं रराणः प्र जायस्व प्रजया पुत्रकाम ॥
apaśyaṃ tvā manasā cekitānaṃ tapaso jātaṃ tapaso vibhūtam | iha prajām iha rayiṃ rarāṇaḥ pra jāyasva prajayā putrakāma ||
I SAW thee meditating in thy spirit what sprang from Fervour and hath thence developed. Bestowing offspring here, bestowing riches, spread in thine offspring, thou who cravest children.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
अपश्यं त्वा मनसा दीध्यानां स्वायां तनू ऋत्व्ये नाधमानाम् । उप माम् उच्चा युवतिर् बभूयाः प्र जायस्व प्रजया पुत्रकामे ॥
apaśyaṃ tvā manasā dīdhyānāṃ svāyāṃ tanū ṛtvye nādhamānām | upa mām uccā yuvatir babhūyāḥ pra jāyasva prajayā putrakāme ||
I saw thee pondering in thine heart, and praying that in due time thy body might be fruitful. Come as a youthful woman, rise to meet me: spread in thine offspring, thou who cravest children.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
अहं गर्भम् अदधाम् ओषधीष्व् अहं विश्वेषु भुवनेष्व् अन्तः । अहम् प्रजा अजनयम् पृथिव्याम् अहं जनिभ्यो अपरीषु पुत्रान् ॥
ahaṃ garbham adadhām oṣadhīṣv ahaṃ viśveṣu bhuvaneṣv antaḥ | aham prajā ajanayam pṛthivyām ahaṃ janibhyo aparīṣu putrān ||
In plants and herbs, in all existent beings I have deposited the germ of increase. All progeny on earth have I engendered, and sons in women who will be hereafter.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
