Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 10.27.11

RV 10.27.11

यस्यानक्षा दुहिता जात्व् आस कस् तां विद्वां अभि मन्याते अन्धाम् । कतरो मेनिम् प्रति तम् मुचाते य ईं वहाते य ईं वा वरेयात् ॥

yasyānakṣā duhitā jātv āsa kas tāṃ vidvāṃ abhi manyāte andhām | kataro menim prati tam mucāte ya īṃ vahāte ya īṃ vā vareyāt ||

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

When a man's daughter hath been ever eyeless, who, knowing, will be wroth with her for blindness? Which of the two will loose on him his anger-the man who leads her home or he who woos her?

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
