Skanda Purana — Nagara Khanda, Shloka 7
तथा स्यात्परमं रूपं तारुण्यं त्वत्प्रसादतः । यथास्य जायते सौख्यं तापसस्यापि मे पितुः
tathā syātparamaṃ rūpaṃ tāruṇyaṃ tvatprasādataḥ | yathāsya jāyate saukhyaṃ tāpasasyāpi me pituḥ
તેમજ તમારા પ્રસાદથી મને પણ પરમ રૂપ અને તારુણ્ય પ્રાપ્ત થાઓ, જેથી તપસ્વી એવા મારા પિતાને પણ સુખ ઉત્પન્ન થાય।
