Sukta 104
गौः। कः पृश्निं धे॒नुं वरु॑णेन द॒त्तामथ॑र्वने सु॒दुघां॒ नित्य॑वत्साम्। बृह॒स्पति॑ना स॒ख्यंऽ जुषा॒णो य॑थाव॒शं त॒न्वः कल्पयाति
káḥ pṛ́śniṃ dhénuṃ váruṇena dattā́m átharvane sudúghāṃ nítyavatsām | bṛ́haspátinā sakhyáṃ juṣāṇó yáthāvaśáṃ tanvàḥ kalpayāti ||
Who fashions for Atharvan the speckled milch-cow, given by Varuṇa—good-milking, ever with calf? Enjoying alliance with Bṛhaspati, he orders, at his will, the welfare of his own person.
अथर्वन के लिए एक चितकारा गाय है जो वरुण ने दी थी। यह गाय अच्छी दूध देती है और हमेशा बच्चे के साथ रहती है। बृहस्पति के साथ दोस्ती करके वो अपनी मर्ज़ी से अपना भला करता है।
