Sukta 9

इ॒यमे॒व सा या प्र॑थ॒मा व्यौच्छ॑दा॒स्वित॑रासु चरति॒ प्रवि॑ष्टा । म॒हान्तो॑ अस्यां महि॒मानो॑ अ॒न्तर्वधूर्जि॑गाय नव॒गज्जनि॑त्री

Recitation with translationAtharva Veda 8.9.11

iyám eva sā́ yā́ prathamā́ vyàucchad ā́sv ítarāsu carati pravíṣṭā́ | mahā́nto asyā́ṃ mahimā́no antár vadhū́r jigāya navagá jánitrī

This—yea, she—is she who first shone forth; in these, in the other (realms), she moveth, entered in. Great are the greatnesses within her: the Bride hath conquered—Navaga’s Generatrix.

यह वही है जो पहली बार चमकी। यह दूसरी जगहों में भी गई और वहाँ घुल गई। इसमें बहुत बड़ी बातें हैं। दुल्हन ने जीत लिया, और यह नई शुरुआत की माँ बनी।
