Sukta 57
स॒प्त क्ष॑रन्ति॒ शिश॑वे म॒रुत्व॑ते पि॒त्रे पु॒त्रासो॒ अप्य॑वीवृतन्नृ॒तानि॑ । उ॒भे इद॑स्यो॒भे अ॑स्य राजत उ॒भे य॑तेते उ॒भे अस्य पुष्यतः
saptá kṣáranti śíśave marútvate pitṛ́e putrā́so ápy avīvṛtan ṛtā́ni | ubhé íd asyóbhé asya rājata ubhé yatéte ubhé asya púṣyataḥ
Seven streams pour forth for the child, for the Marut-strong father: the sons moreover have unclosed the ordinances of Order. Both (sides) of him—yea, both—shine forth; both bestir themselves; both for him bring thriving.
بچے کے لیے، ماروتوں کے زور والے باپ کے لیے، سات دھاریں بہہ رہی ہیں۔ بیٹوں نے دھرم کے احکامات کھول دیے ہیں۔ اس کے دونوں طرف، ہاں دونوں طرف، چمکتی ہیں، دونوں جاگ پڑتے ہیں، دونوں اس کے لیے خوشحالی لاتے ہیں۔
Rishi: Unspecified in the provided excerpt (to be resolved by Anukramaṇī for AVŚ 7.57).
