Mantra
दशपुत्रसमा कन्या दशपुत्रान्प्रवर्ध्दयन्।
यत्फलं लभते मर्त्यस्तल्लभ्यं कन्ययैकया॥
यत्फलं लभते मर्त्यस्तल्लभ्यं कन्ययैकया॥
Transliteration:
daśa putrasamā kanyā daśa putrānpra vardhdayan।
yatphalaṃ labhate martyastallabhyaṃ kanyayaikayā॥
yatphalaṃ labhate martyastallabhyaṃ kanyayaikayā॥
Hindi Translation:
एक बेटी दस बेटों के बराबर है। जो भी फल (गुण, अच्छे परिणाम) एक व्यक्ति को दस पुत्रों के पालन से प्राप्त होते हैं, वही एक अकेली बेटी को जन्म देने से प्राप्त होते हैं।
English Translation:
One daughter is equal to ten sons. Whatever Phala (merits, good results) a person attains by siring and upbringing ten sons, the same Phala is attained by begetting a single daughter alone.
