Atharva Veda: Book 7: Hymn 68: A prayer for children and prosperity
Hymns of the Atharva Veda, by Ralph T.H. Griffith, [1895]
1Sarasvati, in thy decrees, Goddess, in thy celestial laws,
Accept the offered sacrifice, and, Goddess, grant us progeny.
2Here is, Sarasvati, thy fat libation, this sacrifice passing to the
mouth of Fathers.
These most auspicious offerings have ascended to thee: through,
these may we be full of sweetness.
3Be kind and most auspicious, be gracious to us, Sarasvati, May
we be ever in thy sight.
