(May all thy paths be auspicious! May no one obstruct thy
way! And, O son, may all that come across thee have their hearts divested of
hostility towards thee: And may that lord of waters, Varuna. protect thee in
water! And may the deity that rangeth the skies completely protect thee in the
sky. And may, O son, that best of those that impart heat, viz., Surya, thy
father, and from whom I have obtained thee as ordained by Destiny, protect thee
everywhere! And may the Adityas and the Vasus, the Rudras and the Sadhyas, the
Viswadevas and the Maruts, and the cardinal points with the great Indra and the
regents presiding over them, and, indeed, all the celestials, protect thee in
every place! Even in foreign lands I shall be able to recognise thee by this
mail of thine! Surely, thy sire, O son, the divine Surya possessed of the
wealth of splendour, is blessed, for he will with his celestial sight behold
thee going down the current! Blessed also is that lady who will, O thou that
are begotten by a god, take thee for her son, and who will give thee suck when
thou art thirsty! And what a lucky dream hath been dreamt by her that will
adopt thee for her son, thee that is endued with solar splendour, and furnished
with celestial mail, and adorned with celestial ear-rings, thee that hast
expansive eyes resembling lotuses, a complexion bright as burnished copper or
lotus leaves, a fair forehead, and hair ending in beautiful curls! O son, she
that will behold thee crawl on the ground, begrimed with dust, and sweetly
uttering inarticulate words, is surely blessed! And she also, O son, that will
behold thee arrive at thy youthful prime like maned lion born in Himalayan
forests, is surely blessed!)
