Yo Soy Hijo hijo de la madre tierra!


 8 She who at first was water in the ocean, whom with their wond-rous powers the sages followed,   May she whose heart is in the highest heaven, compassed about    wit h truth, and everlasting, 

p. 76   May she, this Earth, bestow upon us lustre, and grant us power  in loftiest dominion. 9 On whom the running universal waters flow day and night with    never-ceasing motion,   May she with many streams pour milk to feed us, may she    bedew us with a flood of splendour. 10 She whom the Asvins measured out, o'er whom the foot of   Vishnu strode,   Whom Indra, Lord of Power and Might, freed from all foemen    for himself,   May Earth pour out her milk for us, a mother unto me her son. 

11 O Prithivī, auspicious be thy woodlands, auspicious be thy hills    and snow-clad mountains.   Unslain, unwounded, unsubdued, I have set foot upon the   Earth,   On earth brown, black, ruddy and every-coloured, on the firm    earth that Indra guards from danger.

 12 O Prithivī, thy centre and thy navel, all forces that have issued    from thy body   Set us amid those forces; breathe upon us. I am the son of   Earth, Earth is my Mother. Parjanya is my Sire; may he  promote me.
