Mantra 23
Sukta 3
आ यूथेव क्षुमति पश्वो अख्यद् देवानां जनिमान्त्युग्रः । मर्तासश्चिदुर्वशीरकृप्रन् वृधे चिदर्य उपरस्यायोः
ā́ yū́theva kṣumáti paśvó ákhyad devā́nāṃ jánimāni tú ugráḥ | mártāsaś cid urváśīr akṛpran vṛ́dhe cid aryá úparasyā́yoḥ ||
Forth, like a herd in might, there came to sight the births of gods—so mighty was it. Even mortals fashioned Urvaśīs, yea, for increase—even the Arya, of higher Āyu’s line.
দলবদ্ধ পশুর মতো শক্তিতে, সে প্রকাশ পেল; দেবতাদের জন্ম-প্রসঙ্গ দৃষ্টিগোচর হল—এতই উগ্র ছিল তা। মর্ত্যরাও উর্বশী-রূপ গড়ে তুলল; বৃদ্ধির জন্য—উচ্চতর আয়ু-বংশের আর্যও।
Rishi: Pitṛ-associated seers (implicit; verse in pitṛ hymn sequence)
