Translation -
О woman, growing оut of your every joint, and growing out of your every knot, like the durva grass (Panicum Dactylon) make us grow into hundreds and thousands. (1)
Notes -
In the rituals, the sacrificer places a darvd brick on the svayamatrnna brick. Durva is panic grass (dba), Panicum Dactylon. Dayananda has interpreted this mantra in the context of a housewife. Kanda, भूमौ संबद्धं जटाभि: काण्डमित्युच्यते असम्बद्धं परु:, joints fixed in the earth with fine roots are called Капада; those not so fixed in the earth are called paru, the knots. Like grass, may you grow into hundreds and thousands of Sons, grandsons, great grandsons etc.
