Sukta 126
उ॒वे अ॑म्ब सुलाभिके॒ यथे॑वा॒ङ्गं भ॑वि॒ष्यति॑ । भ॒सन्मे॑ अम्ब॒ सक्थि॑ मे॒ शिरो॑ मे॒ वीऽव हृष्यति॒ विश्व॑स्मा॒दिन्द्र॒ उत्त॑रः
uvé amba sulābhike yáthā evā́ṅgaṁ bhaviṣyáti | bhásan me amba sákthi me śíro me vī́ ’va hṛ́ṣyati víśvasmād índra úttaraḥ
Ho, mother, O thou easy to be won—so, even so, shall my body come to be. My sexual part, O mother, my thigh, my head—each thrills full-forth with joy: Indra is superior unto all.
अरे माँ, तुम तो बहुत आसान हो। मेरा बदन वैसा ही हो जाएगा जैसा मैं चाहता हूँ। मेरी जान, मेरी टांगें, मेरा सिर, सब खुशी से झूम रहे हैं। सबसे ऊपर इंद्र है।
