aho puṇyam aho puṇyaṃ phalitaṃ phalitaṃ dṛḍham |

asya puṇyasya sampatter aho vayam aho vayam ||34||

अहो पुण्य! अहो पुण्य! हे दृढपणे फळले, फळले. या पुण्य-संपत्तीच्या प्राप्तीने—अहो आम्ही! अहो आम्ही!॥३४॥

Ah, merit! Ah, merit! It has borne fruit—borne fruit—firmly. Of the attainment of this merit—ah, we! ah, we!

Puṇya as preparatory merit culminating in jñāna (sādhana-catuṣṭaya maturation)Mahavakya: Indirect: puṇya is treated as a supportive condition for the rise of mahāvākya-jñāna (fitness for “अहं ब्रह्मास्मि” etc.), not as the liberating factor itself.AtharvaChandas: Prose/Upaniṣadic mixed meter (not strictly determinable)
