RV 10.183.2

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 ||

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

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)
